Note that Mozilla / Firefox will not open these sorts of links when you click them, for security reasons.

If we introduce XWiki in our organization, it will have to coexist with other information stores. Currently, most people use Word and other Office applications to create documents and place them on Windows shares or network directories. There will be many times when people using XWiki will want to point to such existing documents, without having to import them into XWiki or move them onto a Web server. Unless there are other best practices that I am not aware of (and in which case I would love hear about), people will need to insert links (anchors) to what I called "external documents". Does this make more sense?

You can point to files stored on the webserver. All the skin files (css and image) are retrieved that way. Let's not forget that XWiki outputs plain old HTML, and you can always include HTML content in a document.
