kthxbye

Unfortunately, using a relative path doesn't work here.  If in my
working directory, I convert my DocBook file into XSL-FO, and then
process that using FOP, FOP looks for images/draft.png as a path
relative to that working directory.  The image should be referred to
using a full URL, whether that URL uses the file scheme or http.

The file scheme is probably preferable in this case because
* we know it's installed;
* FOP is often invoked without catalog support (such as from Ant);
* it avoids a catalog conflict between d-x-n and d-x;
* it works even when networking is unavailable or broken; and
* it can be changed easily if the user wants to refer to something else.
