Start tag: required, End tag: forbidden

...which means that the baseHref just sets the BASE tag in the header of the edited document.

I figured this out inspecting the generated DOM, but it would be much easier if in the help, instead of just writing:

The base href URL used to resolve relative and absolute URLs in the editor content.

you specify something about the BASE tag.

Moreover: why not trying something to make it work with relative paths? I think in javascript it's not so difficult to generate an absolute path from the union of the editor's url and the specified relative baseHref...
