Well, yes, I'm proposing a filter. Filters by their nature have to be converted to HTML on output. Drupal does a fair bit of filtering and can do a lot more. I don't really understand the problem you have with this proposed solution; just using HTML doesn't solve...well, anything, since the base tag is no longer used the way it was in 4.6.
I have done something similar with a modified version of URLFilter. The first thing it does is clean up all a href tags to make them absolute regardless of what the user entered. It then goes on and does other things I´m not so proud of, but that the client demanded (inserted a target="_blank"). You could tweak that idea further to have it also filter all img tags to include the absolute URL (as folks in this thread have pointed out can be helpful for RSS syndication).
I´d be happy to clean up that modified version and share it (in about three weeks, I´m currently on vacation...). It´s relatively simple to do though, using the format of URLFilter as a basis for the work.
Regards, Greg
