At the very least, we need to be able to combine: http://site.com/contents/text/index.html + ../media/file.mp4 into http://site.com/contents/text/../media/file.mp4 and http://site.com/contents/text/index.html + //media.site.com/file.mp4 into http://media.site.com/file.mp4 because that is what we need to contact the relevant server and generate the request. Eliminating double-dots components is just an easy bonus. Regards, -- Nicolas George
