Interesting. I should have figured there was a shortcut for this.
Earlier tonight I came up with this snippet to do just that:
:map <C-O> :exe "new ".expand("<cfile>")<CR>
to open the file name under the cursor on pressing ctrl+shift+o. It
works regardless of whether that file exists.
In my case, I could just be using ctrl+W_ctrl+F.
The snippet above doesn't search any 'paths' though, AFAIK.
