While this discussion is going on regarding 'relativity', I'd like to note
that bug #12600 reports a problem with the form tag that seems related:

Basically <form action="login.do"> always prepends the module context,
making it impossible to specify a true relative link (like "login.do" rather
than "/app/login.do" or "/app/module/login.do") which is sometimes
desirable.  Is it a bug or feature?  

I'm forced by my architecture to always specify relative links back to the
browser, so I can't use the form tag as is.  The bug description discusses
the type of situation where this may arise...

Any thoughts?

Or - ...

contextRelative is new to 1.1 (obviously).  What if we replaced it with 
relativeTo.  relativeTo could take on the values: 
 application/module/absolute

Then we're not just growing warts on the side for effect.
