Bug Description

let's say I have a directory-structure with mp3's /home/music/mp3/weird_name_of_artist/strange_album_name/track.mp3 , so the filenames are not consistent with the id3 tags.
for renaming I use the substitution pattern /home/music/tmp/{artist}/{album}/{title} ,an absolute path. "Keep extensions" is checked. The preview shown is /home/music/tmp/artist/album/title.mp3 . This seems correct. But when I press the "rename" button, the file ends in /home/music/mp3/weird_name_of_artist/strange_album_name/home/music/tmp/artist/album/title.mp3, a subdirectory of the original location.
