This is an issue primarily with imagefield_tokens module but they are not willing to commit to a patch or fixing it in any way. So I've put it here hoping that someone could get a patch to make it work.
Any time I put multiple forward slashes together (like //), the module strips them down to one. It looks like it's a function File (Field) Paths (specifically filefield_paths_process_string()) that does the actual stripping, but it makes sense in a file path context. It doesn't make sense when a user types in content and has that content saves to the database differently than how she entered it. It is primarily an issue for when I use tokens in the title of an image that has an external link (because Drupal then converts it to a relative, internal link).
I'm just not versed well enough in php to get this to work.
Thanks!
