I use the <base> tag for my Fusebox/ColdFusion sites, which use SES (search engine safe) style URLS - ie, the urls are in the format www.example.com/foo/bar/ rather than www.example.com?foo=bar. In this situation, the relative links no longer make sense, which is where the <base> tag comes into play.
That's precisely what I use it for
I've never used leading slashes. Maybe it is a web server difference though, seeing as I use IIS - which gives me virtual directories - hence the leading slash won't work on my local machine
