you can define the field with 'internal type' = 'file_reference' [¹] 
instead of 'file' [²].
With 'file_reference' the full path is stored (but only the filename is 
shown in the BE :-( ) and you can select every folder instead of the fix 
path you have to define with internal_type = file. 



near the end (search for 'file_reference'):
