Sorry, I misread the code.  You are right.

But then I think we should replace this code in ff-get-file-name:

              (setq file (concat dir "/" filename))
with
              (setq file (expand-file-name filename dir))

and then the code will work with absolute file names as well, even if
the file is not already visited in a buffer.  Right?

You are right.  I updated the doc string to say that.
