Embedding linked graphics

You could try the following script, which operates on the currently-active document. Before you do, please note the following:

- It is generally considered a regressive step to remove file system references from imported graphics. In other words, conventional wisdom would suggest that you are doing damage to your files. I'd recommend backups.

- I just slapped this script together using general scripting knowledge. I don't make a habit of breaking references. If this thing does something else unexpected, you are on your own.
