Like when I'm getting lazy ;-)
I mean; At first it looks like a great idea to just include references from
within HTML files... anyway, someone wanting to extend the import/export with
this - and being able to do it - can get it in the core I think.

So either there is a bug or there is poor configuration some where. The reason
for placing them in a new path is that we can not expect eg.
"fileadmin/template" to be available - especially not if all T3D packages
uses those directories. Therefore; Creating a random directory for placing
the files were a quick way to solve it. Maybe one could make this
configurable upon import.
