Every example I've seen for multi-module projects uses relative paths. 
What are some of the drawbacks that would make absolute paths a poor 
design choice, as in the following example?

<!-- In the "parent pom" -->
<properties>
   <root.dir>C:/project</root.dir>
</properties>

<!-- In the various child poms -->
<modules>
  <module>${root.dir}/module1/sub-module1/artifact1a</module>
  <module>${root.dir}/module1/sub-module1/artifact1b</module>
</modules>
