 Description   

When magnolia.repositories.jackrabbit.config is set to an absolute path instead of a relative one, then the About Magnolia app will throw

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
	at info.magnolia.about.app.AboutPresenter.start(AboutPresenter.java:117)
	at info.magnolia.about.app.AboutMainSubApp.<init>(AboutMainSubApp.java:48)

That's because AboutPresenter.getConnectionString() line: 198 expects a relative path, leading to FileNotFoundException and NPE in consequence.

We used 5.3.2 until today and the About magnolia app worked fine, so that this bug was introduced in 5.2.7 is rather confusing. Now we have upgraded to 5.3.3 and this issue occur. This is of importance to us, when is it scheduled to be resolved?
