The second is a special case of the first ;-). Because ~ expands to
/home/user -- *including* the leading slash...

If you simply interpret everything after the third slash as path, then
you get:
sftp://host//absolute/path => /absolute/path (which is absolute)
sftp://host/~/relative/path => /home/user/relative/path (which is absolute)
sftp://host/relative/path => relative/path (which is relative)
