[META] Does CiviCRM make it easy to provide the absolute system path at runtime from the environment rather than hardcoded in a file?
In CiviCRM 4.7 this seems to be mostly solved but issues keep cropping up now and then. The environment variables can be specified in the settings file. In CiviCRM 4.7.25 it finally got rid of the hardcoded absolute path in Config.IDS.ini. Most recently I've noticed some hardcoded paths in civicrm_cache where group_name = js_strings. It's unclear if the cache is regenerated if the paths cannot be found. Even better would be to avoid saving the full path.
