Currently I am not sure whether I really understand what the problem is. We have
to separate 2 possible problems.

1. OOo does not support relative hyperlinks
Using “2.0 German version WIN XP: [680m3(Build8968)]” I can not confirm that as
a general problem. Of course we have several problems that OOo changes relative
hyperlinks to absolute ones, for example if a document as .html-document, but
normally I can't see such problem, we use document systems with relative
hyperlinks between the documents really excessive, and it works fine.

2. UI does not allow to enter relative paths in hyperlinks
So kit is. If I have a document "Start.odt" where I want to have a hyperlink to
a document "goal.odt" in a subfolder "goal", I can enter a hyperlink
"goal/goal.odt", but that will not work. I must select a hyperlink by the browse
function or enter a complete absolute path, both will create something like 
<file:///e:/Rainer/Eigene%20Dateien/TEMP/oootestfiles/48308_relativehyperlinks/goal/goal.odt>,
to where the link should lead from document
<file:///e:/Rainer/Eigene%20Dateien/TEMP/oootestfiles/48308_relativehyperlinks/start.odt>
with the hyperlink in it.

_But_
That only looks like an absolute hypelink, OOo will handle that as a relative
link. So we do not have a problem with the function, but a problem with 
usability.

2.a OOo should accept correct relative hyperlink entries like 'goal\goal.odt' in
the hyperlink document and change that entry to the internal OOo hyperlink 
format.

2.b OOo should show in the hyperlink dialogue whether it will handle the
hyperlink as a relative one or as a absolute one, and it should be possible to
select in the dialogue whether a hyperlink should be realtive or absolute. For
this, we have issue 57721.

@hfinger,
do you agree that there is no problem with function of relative hyperlinks, but
with usability?
