I'll admit not having having looked recently at those classes so if 
RelativeDynamic URI actually produces absolute URI, I agree it should become
the default behavior.

The only lost functionality I can see when swutching from DynamicURI to 
RelativeDynamicURI is that you're not able to use Turbine forced
redirection to SSL but that's not a big loss IMO.

Can you create a JIRA bug and attach a patch to the bug ? I'll make sure
it goes into 1.6 if nobody else objects.
