What is the rationale for this ? The static content path is important to
protect local filesystem resources against exposure, but it would be a pain
if we have to edit a property every time a new external content provider
showed up. 

Okay, I can understand that some might want to restrict the external sites
you can access from a template - but cant you do that another way ? 

Maybe a property :

allowed_sites=http://www.cnn.com/,ftp://ftp.redhat.com

and to open up all external access :

allowed_sites=

and to deny all external access :

allowed_sites=none
