See the following comment at the beginning of insetgraphics.C:
* If the image is from the clipart, and the document is moved to another
directory, the user is screwed. Need a way to handle it.
This amounts to a problem of when to use relative or absolute file paths
We should probably use what the user asks to use... but when he chooses
by the file dialog we normally get an absolute path and this may not be
what the user meant.
[Note that browseRelFile in helper_funcs.* provides a file name
which is relative if it is at reference path (here puffer path)
level or below, and an absolute path if the file name is not a
`natural' relative file name. In any case,
MakeAbsPath(filename, buf->filePath())
is guaranteed to provide the correct absolute path. This is what is
done know for include insets. Feel free to ask me -- JMarc

I think insetgraphics should treat all file names as relative to buffer
directory.
