Public bug reported:

Inconsistency: krunner doesn't launch dolphin for the "." or ".." paths.
While other valid paths work normally (e.g. /home/user) and invalid
paths are ignored (krunner keeps the dialog open), krunner seems to
imply it will open the "." or ".." directories ('Open ".."' appears in
the bottom panel for "..") but does nothing visible instead, and it
doesn't give an error.

Using Kubuntu 8.10 x64.

UPDATE: It doesn't seem to open paths relative to the home directory
either, while still implying it will open them. E.g. typing "Music"
won't open the ~/Music dir.
