If, as I suspect, many more users can enter simple globs than can enter simple regexps, then providing a GLOB operator and function in SQLite is very useful indeed. Of course, regexps are very useful as well, particularly for "power" users, so it's good that SQLite offers both: it makes development of applications that offer either, or both glob and regexp search options, much easier. IMO the regexp facility should get more attention than the glob facility, but both should be present.
