When adding a link to a file in the media library through the FCKEditor in the CMS Desk, the link defaults to the "http://" protocal and places the full url of the current server in the link (i.e. http://devserver/getmedia/). This is different then the default behavior when creating a link to a file node created within the desk, which uses the "<other>" protocol and uses a relative link (i.e. ~/getfile).

I ran into the issue after I moved a site from our development server to a live server and had to write some replacement scripts for the database to correct the URLs.

Is there a reason that the links to the media library are created differently then links to file nodes?
