Bug Description

I would like to see (optional) relative paths for imported images. I am
using some selfmade pattern libraries and since inkscape uses absolute
paths, the SVGs break on other computers, where the absolute path is not
available. Example:

The patterns lie in /home/user/projects/patterns, the SVG file in
/home/user/projects/drawings.

On another computer this will be mounted as /home/doofus/projects/*. That
way the SVG will break.
