Comment (by selnomeria):

 WHY??
 100% of local files and images and script need that path, and not abspath.
 are not you programmers? I am surprised so much, havent you ever viewed
 the website sources with
 <img src="/wp_dir/wp-content/uploads......" />
 instead of
 <img src="http://mysite.com/wp_dir/wp-content/uploads......" />


 and according to you, if i use ABSPATH,browser will get:
 <img src="home/mysite/public_html/wp_dir/wp-content/uploads......" />


 so, the simplest solution is to add just home folder path too in
 wp_options.

 i always (and professional programmers), use the first type of urls.
