Did you try filelist from JMR?  With the find-file-hook suggested in the
documentation, it opens directories in a bufed-like matter (but much nicer).
You can browse to the file searched for and open it with Enter.

You could also bind F3 (or ^O) to

require("filelist");
setkey("filelist_list_dir(buffer_dirname)", "^O");

to skip the initial minibuffer-response (buffer_dirname is in bufutils.sl
which comes with the sl_utils mode).
