> Bulk import does some sanity checks on the client side so that it can fail fast. When a user passes relative directories to bulk import, these sanity checks may pass because cwd+reldir is ok.  Then code then passes these relative dirs to the server side which has a different cwd.  The relative paths fail in the server side and the user does not get a very useful error message.
> There are at least two possible solutions :
>  * In client code convert relative paths to URIs before passing to server.
>  * Reject relative paths in client code
