Since it fits better here I copied the content of a mail to the mailinglist:

At the moment (sorry, just using 1.9) the complete path is stored for
all files in mysql database.
I'm using mysql because there are more people with access to my
pictures. The path within the base directory is always the same but the
absolut path in the filesystem is sometimes different.
Example:
/home/freanki/win/pics/2010/freanki/testing/testpic.jpg
/home/directory/pics/2010/freanki/testing/testpic.jpg
z:\pics\2010\freanki\testing\testpic.jpg

This could be resolved with a basepath (stored local or with different
base path in mysql) and relativ path.

1 base path:/home/freanki/win/
2 base path:/home/directory/
3 base path:z:\ (with the addition that all / have to be converted to \
since it's windows)

And all pictures would be stored like this:
pics/2010/freanki/testing/testpic.jpg

This would also save some bandwith and storage...
