I just know I'm going to get pointed to a bit of documentation I haven't
come across, but…

I've made a link abbreviation that I want to export to HTML directly as
an absolute link:

#+LINK: mylink  /absolute/url/%s/

I'd like [[mylink:bob][link text]] to export as:

<a href="/absolute/url/bob/">link text</a>

Right now the link is turned into a file:// protocol.

Do I have any recourse here?

Thanks!
Eric
