As pointed out by @deranjer on PR #2, if an image is used that is on a different drive then the LDtk file an absolute path is used instead of relative path. Along with this there may be some cases where devs may be using images that are not in the res:// directory.
While I think the res:// should be the standard use case, adding the ability for the user to specify if referenced files should be copied or not may be a good idea.
