for people doing bulk import it's important to know which files are going to be processed. Ultimately a better patch is to pass how to sort (date modified, alphabetically, none - in this case the user should rely on the fact that Dir.glob behaves differently across platforms) and logstash e.g. the file plugin could have option "sort". for now I think it's important users KNOW that files are sorted by date modified or alternatively alphabetically: ```globbed_dirs = Dir.glob(path).sort```
