--- Comment #5 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
I don't see a use case when a template should be searched relative to opened
document. If it's edited locally, it's OK to use absolute path to the template
(e.g., in user's profile); if passed to another user, it doesn't make sense to
use relative addressing in this case, because likely the document will not be
in the same position relative to that user's profile; is working on a shared
project with shared templates, using absolute path to the shared template is
also OK.

So what is the use case to have an option to save paths to templates relative?
Sending files along with their templates? how important that use case is? i.e.,
why would in such a workflow edits to templates be necessary, which is the
reason to find the templates relative to the documents?
