But as Robert says, too, the path is indicated in the absolute form in the Document Path field. Right clicking on the link and selecting Edit Hyperlink also shows an absolute path. But inspection of content.xml confirms that the path is relative.

If the file with the hyperlink is moved to a different directory, the link updates showing again an absolute path as though the linked file has also been moved. But, of course, the link no longer works because it was relative and all the files concerned are no longer in the same directory.

Is there someone able to shine a light on this subject?

Thing is that links break when mailing or moving and that is a serious flaw.

For example, I would expect a template name without path in a document xml, result in a search for that template in:

 * the designated template folder
 * the home folder
 * the folder where the document lives

Apparently this does not work, not even one folder is consulted.

Is there some sort of a search path available? A policy? It would really be helpful if this subject is discussed and I would love to see a contribution.
