Thanks, Ville!  This is very useful.

A question about filename completion in general.  When I type

somefunc('/home

and <TAB> to complete, I see

fun('/home/'

Once the inverted-commas are closed, no more filename completion can
be done, and I have to type 'backspace <TAB>'.  I think this used to
work a long time ago, but I may recall incorrectly.
