 Replying to [comment:11 dmole]:
 Realizing ob_start is a PHP function that rewrites the whole page, that is
 not a usable solution for anyone who wants external links. (unless they
 use a preset list of known domains in the callback function)
 {{{
  /** Hack to make URLs root relative */
  ob_start( 'make_url_root_relative' );
  function make_url_root_relative( $string ) {
       return  preg_replace(
 '/https?...(myblog.com|127.0.0.1|nat.whatever.tld)\//i', '/', $string );
  }
 }}}
 I'm guessing the function should check if it's output is an email, ideas?
