Well, but, erm, uh.  The problem is that neither SM nor the user has real control over filenames used by content - this is something that the content providers must work out.  And there aren't many guidelines enunciated in this regard.

I would think that as long as the relative path is not "eyelashtr.jpg" but instead ":Runtime:textures:BoobasFiles:eyelashtr.jpg" there will be no troubles in finding the correct file.  But it does depend upon two things: Does Poser do this specific test before doing a blind search (we hope it does) and will content creators be so kind to make their references this clear?

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
