Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

This is not a bug, it's a feature request so nothing needs fixing. What I would love to see is a similar to how forestry.io has an ability to setup public_path and front_matter_path properties, which allow to prefix images with a folder.

In our current setup, we have an .MD file, which has a property of image: image.jpg, but the image is actually stored in a sub folder of images/full/image.jpg. Without changing a grusome number of files, is there a way to tell FrontMatter to look for images in that folder for the preview in the editor?

Describe the solution you'd like
Having an ability to preset a folder for images to look in.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Changing all the files to have full path.

DISREGARD the above please.

Since I've I use the FrontMatter as editor, and the publishing and other actions are done through the automated actions in Github, I was able to edit frontMatter.content.publicFolder to point to the given image folder, and now everything works as expected.

Thank you very much for amazing extension! Goodbye Forestry.io!
