A quick thought: on Linux, '/' is the root directory, similarly to "C:\" on Windows. Perhaps this was the reason it's verboten. An opening slash should either be disallowed, or treated as a relative link.

static-filetype always gets a path that is appended to staticdir, so you don't have to worry about absolute paths.

Well, then I'm stuffed. Disallowing .. makes perfect sense, though.
