CSV Data Set - absolute file names

CSV Data Set currently assumes file names are relative to the base
directory given by the property user.dir.

If a user provides an absolute filename, then the file won't be read.

I'd like to change it to allow absolute file names - is that acceptable?

I realise that such names may not work when files are copied to remote
systems, but if the user wants to use absolute names, why not let
them? The documentation can be updated to say this.

If not, I'll just change the code to log a warning (and perhaps
display a message box) to say that absolute files are not allowed, and
change the form to say "Relative filename" or similar.

CSV Data Set currently assumes file names are relative to the base
directory given by the property user.dir.

If a user provides an absolute filename, then the file won't be read.

I'd like to change it to allow absolute file names - is that acceptable?

I realise that such names may not work when files are copied to remote
systems, but if the user wants to use absolute names, why not let
them? The documentation can be updated to say this.

If not, I'll just change the code to log a warning (and perhaps
display a message box) to say that absolute files are not allowed, and
change the form to say "Relative filename" or similar.
