Not a very good guess. Think ssh, rsync, etc. If the glob doesn't
expand locally, it has another shot at being expanded remotely, so
"ssh foo ls *.c" and "rsync -a foo:tmp/* ." will actually work without
needing careful quoting.

I use tcsh interactively and end up doing this kind of stuff a bit. I get to specify whether I want the matching to occur locally or remotely (as opposed to hoping it doesn't occur locally). I don't like rules with exceptions, so I do things one way when I want local expansion, and another way when I want remote expansion.
