I erroneously interpreted the CLI-help ("Display absolute pathnames") as:
"show the complete path of the changed file as recorded by the Filesystem".

Thanks!

 Absolute path mean, absolute from the root of the checkout.
 Since you
 always execute your command from the root of the checkout,
 relative or
 absolute is equivalent. To see a difference you should try
 to work from
 a subdirectory inside the checkout.
 
 d:\test>cd somedir
 d:\test\somedir>fossil extra --abs-paths
 test1.txt
 test2.txt
 
 d:\test\somedir>fossil extra --rel-paths
 ..\test1.txt
 ..\test2.txt
