Maybe, I might even end up using it, who knows.  It does not solve the
problem I tried to describe.  Relative links allow for moving whole
hierarchies elsewhere, so the current default Org behaviour is good.

But not good enough for the agenda buffer.  Links do not always work in
there, and this is the problem to solve.  The problem has ramifications.
