Maybe always copy full path, on CTRL+V paste relative path and on
CTRL+SHIFT+V (paste special?) paste full path?

Well, it's nothing wrong with the content, but IMO it's a bit hard to
navigate. I would like to see a hierarchical navigation through API
similar to this:

http://www.blenderhr.com/blendercoders/apilayout.html

When I click on View Docs for resolution_x, I would immediately get
all info about that value: where is located (under
bpy.context.scene.render) and that it's a member of RenderSettings
class.

Am I making any sense?
