// Within materials, meshes etc. there are usually relative paths provided, no absolute (not just true for PixelLight file formats).

// - Root
// - Data
// - Meshes
// - Materials
// For "normal" projects this is no issue because everything is usually relative to the root project directory...
// ... but this viewer must be able to pick out e.g. a mesh out of nowhere and must still be able to locate the required
// other resources like materials. So, in here, we can only work with heuristics... this can and will of course go from
// time to time horribly wrong...
// First try: Find the first "Data" occurrence with the given filename and hope that it's the project root directory
// Get filename as clean URL
