 doesn't sound right if a relative URL can be used.

 Sounds correct to me. We want the full URL path (/wp-content/uploads).
 "Full path" could mean a fileystem path. In fact we explicitly don't want
 it to be an absolute URL; see wp_upload_dir().

 In making the decisions in [20196] [20198] [20199] [20200] [20201] [20202]
 [20203] I simply consulted the code, both for sanitize_option() and
 whether any validation or resetting occurred in core code. In many cases,
 a field may be left blank or 0 and it is treated specially, such as with a
 fallback, or by turning off something (like paging, or comment moderation
 link counting). We need to be careful here.
