Can "C-c C-o", when invoked on a [file:] link at point jump to the file
in a dired buffer, the way C-x C-j jumps me to a buffer's dired entry?
C-u C-c C-o isn't it, either---I don't want to actually open the file,
just see it in dired so I can do whatever needs to be done with it
(attach to an email, copy to an external drive, etc).

I have a list of video files in this case, and when I do "C-c C-o", they
open automatically in VLC. This isn't so useful for me.

Alternatively, are there ways to do such "diredlike" things as copying,
deleting, attaching, from org mode? If I just need to RTFM here, I'd
apprecaite a nudge in the right direction!

Thank you,
steven arntson
