    That's not used by normal users, but many powerusers rely on it:
      The expression todo_{work,garden,homepage}.txt is expanded to
      todo_work.txt todo_garden.txt todo_homepage.txt

    Very vital for bash-feehling. Expands "cd /home/kar<TAB>" to
    "cd /home/karsten/"

    A better place for that is /etc/login.conf i guess.
