Yes, that's exactly right.

Alan, I hadn't realized your code would work using the normal
keybindings. I tried it out this morning, and it works perfectly! I
really have been searching around for this kind of thing for a long
time. It seems like many people could find it useful.

For me, I'll construct a list of project files in an org-mode buffer.
Then I'll be able to easily visit those files in a dired directory and
do whatever I need to (usually copying the files to a stick drive or
other portable media to transfer to collaborators).

Thanks again!
Steven
