Paths to images not generated correctly when impor

Question

An issue I'm having with Web Essentials is that the paths to my images seems to be generated incorrectly. For example, when I have this structure:

/css
   main.less /* imports _sub.less */
   main.css /* generated */
/css/subfolder
   _sub.less

and _sub.less contains a reference to an images with '../img/some/folder/myimage.jpg', it gets prefixed by the subfolder in the generated css file. Resulting in 'css/subfolder/../img/some/folder/myimage.jpg'.

That is incorrect because ../img does not exist from the sub directory. Any solution to this?

try it like my that: https://stackoverflow.com/a/16934685/676406

@import "..\..\..\folder2\subfolder1\subfolder2\styles\fear.less";

No leading slash and only backslashes.
