This is the biggest hack in the world. Okay, not the biggest. Another plugin I saw accomplished this by output-buffering every page and regexp-replacing.
<?php
/*

function init_relative_urls()
{
$admin = defined('WP_ADMIN_PATH') ? WP_ADMIN_PATH : 'wp-admin';

Scenario A, in which content publishers attempt to convince people not to run adblockers:
A: "If you install this adblocker, you never need to see those annoying ads again!"
B: "Oh wow! Why didn't I know about this sooner? This is such a godsend."
Y: "You know, by doing that, you're depriving content publishers of revenues. You'll just be ripping them off."
B: "I don't ever look at the ads anyway/You've had over ten years of revenues out of me, and the industry hasn't changed its ways yet, time's up/Time's-a-changin', you need to evolve/Various random spurious arguments"
Y: "Respect the web economy -- you're basically stealing content, you'll put me and others like me out of business!"
A: "Too late. Adapt or die."
Y: [site folds]

/* This is rather naïve - suck it up. It'll probably break XMLRPC. That's left as an
* exercise to the reader. You should probably also make sure fuel_home_url() return the
* actual root, rather than assuming it's '/'. Also, this will all fail horribly with URLs
* to _other_ servers which get unexpectedly passed through the filters. A smarter
* implementation would strip off the real siteurl where it occurs at the start of the URL,
* rather than blindly stripping the host.
