Comment (by Bernd Wechner):
I'll just and a voice of thanks to Alex Hayes for making a package
available and one in critque of the justification I read from Carl Meyer
which I also find does not hold water on jot. Django is littered with
configurable options and RelativeFile paths are not useful in 'some'
circumstances, but likely IMHO a lot, relative in particular to the
BASE_DIR of the website (for files stored there, and databases that want
to remain portable between different BASE_DIRs and not have file paths in
these fields become erroneous.
