Hello!

Is it possible to copy/paste between LyX files in different directories,
while preserving the relative paths to images?

Right now, when pasting from LyX to LyX, the paths to the images are
adjusted to be relative paths to the images in the original directory (or
absolute paths if they are on a different drive), e.g.

    ../../otherstuff/oldproject/img/myimg.png

However, this results in unwanted dependencies between different
directories for me. I'd rather have the original path (img/myimg.png)
preserved, and be told about the missing file by seeing a "could not
generate thumbnail" placeholder or compilation errors.

Is this currently possible?
