Maybe a dumb question, but why is the globdir: prefix needed?  Isn't it enough 
that if a path contains one or more globbing characters, it will be treated as 
a glob pretty much as described above?

If not, I'd suggest renaming it into simply glob: because I believe the intent 
is that /path/somewhere.d/*.conf will match _files_ matching that glob, and 
it's not completely clear what the "dir" is (somewhere.d or *.conf or ...?)
