I don't think that's something that we should really want to happen. That would mean that in case the link wasn't found at the original location, OO would start a search on your drives to find the file. Imagine what would happen if you had a lot of links in your document or in a network environment with lots of disks. And all of that just because although you know where the file is, you want the OO to find it automatically for you.
