The brender web interface claims that the project paths are relative to the web folder, while they are actually relative to the brender main folder. Have you ever used relative paths with projects and had it work successfully? If not, I would like to go ahead and modify the web interface to use paths relative to brender.

This problem affects the "server test" feature and job creation because the web interface works with paths relative to `web`, but after the job is created, the paths have to be changed relative to brender root in order for the render to complete successfully.

This is really annoying, since I have to change blend path to `../blend` to create the job, then switch it back to `blend` so that rendering will be successful.
