@Hans: Can we make the following change in file-res.lua

     if isfile(fname) then
         if trace_files then
             report_files("found on extra path: %s",fname) --AM: was name
         end
         fnd = fname --- AM: was name
         break
     end

Then, getreadfilename("any", ".", name) will always return the location of the found
file. This is also consistent with the behavior when the file is found in ../ or
../../ directories.

This change should not affect the \readfilename macros and will allow me to use

     \def\externalfilter@any_filename#1%
         {\ctxcommand{getreadfilename("any",".","#1")}}

to search for a file (even if it is in the path specified by \usepath).
