Final Accepted Text
Summary 0001090: "tilde expansion, parameter expansion, command substitution, and arithmetic expansion" is incorrect
Description "pattern (..) shall be subjected to tilde expansion, parameter expansion, command substitution, and
arithmetic expansion"

is incorrect - quote removal also applies. In fact the whole thing is simply "WORD expansion" and should be stated as such.
Desired Action Replace "tilde expansion, parameter expansion, command substitution, and
arithmetic expansion" with "WORD expansion"
Tags No tags attached.

 No, quote removal is not performed. If it was, then:

case $foo in
"*") ... ;;
esac

would be the same as:

case $foo in
*) ... ;;
esac

The handling of quotes in the pattern is covered in 2.13, as per the subsequent text: "shall be compared against the expansion of word, according to the rules described in Section 2.13 (which also describes the effect of quoting parts of the pattern)."

Also, field splitting is not performed.

 OK I see your point, thank you (and field splitting is as per the last report). Second bogus report (maybe I should stop writing them at night :) )

Is there a way to nuke a bogus report?
