I bet most people don't bother moving their content or use include_path.

The include_path option allows you to specify additional/alternate roots 
for static content.  So C:\images\static\1.gif would be correct.  You'd 
end up with a much larger search area if you had to look for 1.gif in 
every possible directory (root/static, root, C:\images, 
C:\images\static, and so on).  If you wanted to use C:\images\1.gif, you 
would need to refer to the file without the static directory, like:
<img src="[% c.uri_for('/1.gif') %]" />
