A previous iteration of DEP-5 allowed patterns like debian/control without
the leading "./".
I don't think I really care that much what pattern syntax is used as long
as it's completely documented in DEP-5 (with the exception that I don't
think we need to explain file glob patterns, except that DEP-5 should be
clear about whether {} is allowed or not). I find the references to find
behavior very confusing and never guess correctly about what find would
do.
