These should expand local file names when prompting:

  C-c C-c h runs the command html-href-anchor (found in mhtml-mode-map),
  which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in ‘sgml-mode.el’.

  C-c C-c i runs the command html-image (found in mhtml-mode-map), which
  is an interactive compiled Lisp function in ‘sgml-mode.el’.

E.g., if no http[s]: is detected, assume we are inserting a relative
link, and help us expand that.

The html-href-anchor-file command does this.

OK, I found it. In
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode.el

That's great.

But they forgot to also make
html-image-file !!!

It doesn't really seem important enough to warrant its own keybinding, I
think.

But when authoring the typical webpage,
one might include up to e.g., eight
   images/barf01.jpg, images/barf02.jpg, etc.
for each reference to
   someotherfile.html
   (./someotherfile.html)

In fact most web pages include at least one image,
but not necessarily a link to another local article.

Thus we see it is actually more important.

Anyway these never needed their own key bindings in the first place.
All they needed was to detect if http, etc. protocols were in front.
If not, they should expand relative / local filenames.
