You really rely on the shell globbing expansion to set the proper order of the pieces?
It's a documented / well defined ordering. The pieces are named such that they fit glob expansion ordering rules. image.001, image.002, ..., image.999 So yes. fyi: I do manually review all the pieces to make sure there are not any extraneous files that might get picked up.
