Comment:

 I suspect the best approach here is to just use an known default relative
 to `STATIC_URL` — so instead of `/static/placeholder.png`, just
 `placeholder.png`, allowing `urljoin()` to do it's thing? (Does that not
 work for you? If not, I'd try overriding the `url` property on the field
 to handle the default case before thinking about adjusting the storage...)

 Given the sensitive nature of this, any change here will need to go via a
 full proposal to the DevelopersMailingList. I'm guessing this isn't
 something we'd be keen to change but we'd need to see exactly what's being
 proposed, and exactly how we can be sure we're not introducing a security
 regression before moving forwards. (Test cases showing that the `re` is
 correct for all manner of cases being at least a starting point there.)
 I'll mark it `needsinfo` on that basis.
