Hi Steve,

I could have sworn that GetWebResourceUrl returned an absolute URI, but I clearly am mistaken.  Regardless, after consideration, it isn't even necessary to embed the image; any absolute URI will pass the IndexOf() check by moving the first slash out of the 0th position.  You'll just have to deal with secured and unsecured schemes explicitly.

Something akin to: new Uri(new UriBuilder(Request.Url.Scheme, Request.UserHostName).Uri, ResolveUrl("~/DesktopModules"))

You can do the whole thing with a UriBuilder if you're okay with having the portname present (using another overload).

For those keeping score, the work item is located here.  Thanks for logging it!

Well it looks like we just can't win here!

Your conclusion seems the most straightfoward until the bug is corrected.
