Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:4 mattfiocca]:
 > '''Moving sites''': You would only need to revise the BLOG_ROOT config,
 if it was previously set to "/dev", it would just become "", and the site
 would continue to display the correct absolute URLs, built dynamically
 from the new conditions.

 It might be not that simple in practice:

 * How do we migrate the existing content?
 * What should be done with plugins and themes that still store absolute
 URLs?

 Adding a constant would not cover all the cases, it would just add one
 more step to the existing migration process.
