All of these changes need to be in place at the same time or there's some edge cases that are going to fail. I suppose I could try to split the *reading* of the absolute/relative paths separate from the *writing* of the relative paths. However, I'm not sure if this would be worth the trouble as most places that read from the files also write to the files.
