Just a postscript here:

recognition options are checked or not.

Document implies file: protocol, so if you try to insert a filesystem
absolute, but still relative URL, like "/index.html", OOo will convert
it to "file:///index.html" rather than "http:///index.html";.

It seems that OOo always wants a directory component prefix when
filenames are given, otherwise it assumes it's a directory and slaps a
'/' on the end.
