It is clear enough what the function does if it is absolute, but the doc should say explicitly what it does for a relative FILENAME, namely, it expands the FILENAME in the `default-directory' of the current buffer. (The doc says that DIRECTORY defaults to the `default-directory' of the current buffer, but this is about FILENAME, not DIRECTORY.) Both the doc string and (elisp) `Relative File Names' need to be fixed.
