Comment (by nmenescardi):

 I’ve been reviewing this ticket. I applied last patch (44038.2) and ran
 existing tests in privacy group, they all passed.

 Also, I created two more tests related with this ticket using absolute
 paths. I tried to follow some of the points highlighted on @desrosj

 I found two possible issues with this patch:
 1) if a not valid path is saved (eg: change hosting) I believe it doesn’t
 resolve a new valid directory and file name.

 2) If an old valid absolute path was saved, it doesn’t keep that value.
 Instead, it generates and saves a relative path as new value. It works
 with new links but probably it doesn’t preserve old ones.

 Tests are added in a new patch: 44038.3 along with previous changes.
