I have had a look at globalff.el, and it seems to me that an even
better way forward would be to talk to the developer of globalff and
ask him to add a feature: It should be possible to take a default
search string is taken from the file name at point in a similar way as
ffap does it. He could even use ffap internals to grab that string in
a useful way, I guess. This would be something not only useful in
Org-mode, but in many other modes too.
