---------------------------------
Hi Konrad!
To make this request clear and to answer your question "Why do you expect that
only URLs not starting with a host are modified through that filter?"
Recently, I had a case where we are adding different icons for links on a
website depending on whether external or internal as a visual help for a
website visitor.
Editors are adding relative paths for internal links as usual and for external
link with an external domain (e.g.
[www.guugle.com/dir/index.asp).|http://www.guugle.com/dir/index.asp)]
In our case this filter would produce urls like this ..
path: /content/siteA/page1 -> /content/siteA/page1.html
path: /content/siteA/page2-> /content/siteA/page2.html
[path: www.guugle.com/dir/index.asp |http://www.guugle.com/dir/index.asp)]->
[www.guugle.com/dir/index.html |http://www.guugle.com/dir/index.htl](not
desired)
The external link becomes here unaccessibe due to the wrong extension. We could
not use the filter here, a parameter to ignore the links with domain name woud
help.
Yes, absolute paths with a domain can also point to internal resources. But
mostly on an author instance editors while editing links would not add domain
names for internal links ?!
