The link field doesn't accept a leading slash ("/some/path") which could be useful for internal paths- if a leading slash is not specified, then a prefixed "node" is used.
For internal url link, a leading slash could be allowed.

You can already reference internal urls using simple "node/10". The leading slash does not make sense in situations where Drupal is installed in a subdirectory.

but what about for a link to a view? i cant figure out how to make this happen. i just want to enter /view-alias. if this is the wrong way, an alternate suggestion would be much appreciated.

What happens if you just enter 'view-alias' as the path?
