There are a couple potential caveats to that, the most serious being sort methodology for the wildcard expansion. It would have to be deterministic in terms of "always being sorted the same way" (because a straight wildcard expansion will present the various directory items in essentially random order). If you care about in what order things are in the path, then it would be a bad idea to use, but if the sort-methodology is well documented so nobody is surprised, then it should be fine.
