I would argue on Windows that relative paths that cross drive
boundaries should be made absolute to that drive automatically.
i.e. I may have libraries for multiple engineers to source from a
network shared drive but they are only adding it to a project and not
kicad globally.

${KIPRJDIR} instead of relative paths), relative paths may not be portable.
Well if its a message box, it's hopefully a warning you can
disable.(Never show again checkbox). A constant warning each time
libraries are added and the user couldn't care less about some other
operating system is also a pain.
