insert file, relative or absolute path when using <I

insert file, relative or absolute path when using <I

[Uwe Brauer]

Hi

I use tempo template and writing 

<I pressing tab allows me to add a file I want to be inserted.
Although the minibuffer presents me with the absolute path, only the
relative path is inserted.

Where can I change this behaviour?

Thanks

It's hard coded at the moment.  I'd be okay adding a defcustom that
controls this behavior, though perhaps those familiar with tempo.el can
suggest a better approach.

Thoughts?
