There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think it is not going to work if an absolute path is given by the user.
It's going to generate currentDir/../<start of absolute path>

#1078 related to #1075 has been hanging around way too long. Sorry about that 🙈
@ConorIA Since our codebase has evolved and your PR has merge conflicts I simply created a new one. I opted for a naming similar to the start param of Google Chrome (https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/HEAD/docs/user_data_dir.md).
Unless there are strong opinions agains this I would want to merged this and thereby fix and address #1075 and #1078.
