 This has been an annoyance, but small, for a too long time now. It was my
 first little disappointment with WordPress, as "Why do I see this
 'index.php' in the admin internal links?".

 Never ever link to index.php explicitly, partly because it looks like
 duplicate content (and other reasons).

 `./` is the correct relative URL to the index of the current directory.
