> use {A..Z} which doesn't have the problem
That has a different problem: Unlike the glob pattern [A-Z], the braces expand to every letter from A to Z, even if some of them don't match:
$ echo [A-D]*
Desktop Documents Downloads
$ echo {A..D}*
A* B* C* Desktop Documents Downloads

The readline command for this in Bash is glob-expand-word (C-x *).
