Hmm, despite the similarity in name, 'wildignore' and 'wildignorecase' do very different things. I think 'wildignorecase' should always be used. Thus the extra argument only controls 'wildignore'. Thus it's a flag to switch between "all results" and "filtered results". While 'wildignorecase' changes what matches, which I would think should always happen. -- Me? A skeptic?
