I'll see what I can do, but again, it would require that the developer be
sure and turn this feature on.

i think, the better way is to change the status from the
configuration-file. Make this to a part of the database. I would not
save the configuration-file-path but the database-root -path. The
configuration-file and the database-path's are in subdirectories from
this root-path.The configuration-file subdirectory-name is a property.
In the catalog-file is not saved the absolute path from the database,
but the relative path from the database-root path. Then you have the
structure:

      ==> configfilepath

root path   ==> project1   ==> Database
               ==> ....

      ==> project2   ==> Database


If the path-dialogs save the relative paths, then is the handling very
easy.
With this structure you can work with the same
configuration-file/configuration-path in desktop-, remote and
shared-directory mode. If you go with the database to a other pc. Then
insert the copy from the folder-structure. Set the link to the database
root folder, in special situations change the
configuration-file-path-name, and it is working.

While that's a very good idea, I'm not sure if I can force that type of
structure on everyone at this stage.  Some people may have already set up
things in a completely different fashion.
