If a URL is entered for the target site (production or staging), convert it to relative, automatically

Does this have to do with links? I'm not sure the context here.

Right, if someone enters a link with a href of http://www.jboss.org/foo/bar, we should alter (or offer to fix it?) it to a relative URL ../foo/bar (for example)

I think site assets should be absolute links, but page links (and
downloads) should probably relative. Wes, thoughts?

If they are absolute links to images, we won't be able to preview images that haven't been pushed yet. Can we?

I talked to @LightGuard about this towards the end of the meeting, and I think the idea is that page specific resources should be relative links, but site resources (such as CSS files, font files) should be absolute URLs (we tend to want to put these on static.jboss.org anyway.
