Hi; with latest org-mode and emacs -Q, I pressed:
1. C-c C-l
2. file:/
3. TAB
I get [No match]. I expected that I could complete file names as in C-x C-f, without changing any setting. Is this a bug?

To get completion, you need to call org-insert-link with a prefix
argument:
C-u C-c C-l
See this FAQ:

Thanks.
I saw as a bug not completing by default, but now I imagine some reasons for it: not all completing methods will work well if they see a "file:" written as prefix. In addition it may be difficult to enable the file name completer only as long as "file:" is written at the beginning.
So I will use C-u C-c C-l
