Sorry I CBF to do a pull request. The main thing is:

For the time being [re: fixed problem], I can do :shell atril and then hit <Tab> which completes the filename [or directory] under the cursor. As far as I know, this is a very useful but undocumented feature.

It's pretty intuitive which is how I figured it out in the first place. Good work. Should still be documented of course.
