Please use t3lib_div::getFileAbsFileName($filename, true, true);

Only allowing only relative paths to typo3/ and EXT: will get us
consistent results with $GLOBALS['TBE_STYLES']['htmlTemplates'][$filename].

Sidenote: the patch has trailing whitespaces.

But I think that removing backPath completely may break extensions. So I
suggest this code:

if (substr($filename,0,4) != 'EXT:') {
  $filename = t3lib_div::resolveBackPath($this->backPath . $filename);
} else {
  $filename = t3lib_div::getFileAbsFileName($filename, true, true);
}
return t3lib_div::getURL($filename);

But for me the proper way for an extension is to use an EXT: prefix
(which should be mentioned in the inline docs). See above for the reason.
