When we call helm-find-files on andan org link or path, helm is smart enough to autocomplete the path, making it easy for us to navigate from there. Unfortunately, if the link starts with [[file:./this/file/name.png]], then helm extended actions fail, because helm can't find a file that starts with "file:".

Does anyone know how I could advice helm-find-files to trim the "file:" part of a link?
