By definition, the settings.xml file is NOT for project-specific
stuff. Therefore the very notion of "relative path" is invalid. I
don't see this being changed or "fixed" any time soon, and don't in
fact consider it a bug.

The easiest thing would probably be to teach your users how to use
"subst" in DOS, or include a "setup.bat" file in your project archive
that runs subst and creates a virtual drive say M: which always points
to the "latest" repo which is inside the latest project you've sent
them, and then point settings.xml at the new M drive.
