I totally get that,  Just curious, and that seems like it should be a
switch in rendering when you want to render local and use localized files
to render.  It's it kind of pain to setup proxy for any decent amount of
reads for sure.   Maybe this should be a feature request  :-)

 "Switch to allow render to use localized files. Just like there is a
switch to use Proxy files"
