Using wildcarded file names

Here's a funny corner case that I believe exposes a bug (I'm running on Mac
OS X with version 1.2.1):

1. Add a file named test.txt to the repository ("svn add test.txt")
2. Remove the file ("svn remove test.txt")
3. Commit the change, using a wildcard ("svn commit test.*")

This works properly. However, if instead of committing the change, you try
to request status with a wildcard ("svn status test.*"), it doesn't work. I
think this should be consistent - either way would make sense, but status
and commit should handle this case in the same way. What does everybody else
think?
