A big tracker is the application I'm most familiar with that handles this kind

How careless of me.
A solution is to use `detox -v` and capture the output.
$ touch '1234[]'
$ ls '1234[]'
1234[]
$ detox -v 1234*
Scanning: 1234[]

A bit untidy. Really, detox should be patched to check the date and apply it to
the new file.

It should be trivial to patch detox to do this itself.
