Felix,
In EcoreResourceFactoryImpl.createResource we use
result.getDefaultSaveOptions().put(XMLResource.OPTION_URI_HA NDLER,
new URIHandlerImpl.PlatformSchemeAware());
to avoid having a relative path from workspace resources to plugin
resources.
If you opened your model and saved it to a different resource rather
than just moving the file, you wouldn't have a problem...

You asked about standalone execution. The above would remap any URI
prefixed by the first URI to be prefixed by the second URI instead, and
the second URI allows you to access contents within a zip/jar file. So
in this way, you could ensure that your symbolic "plugin" URIs are
accessible in their jars.

It stores them in URIConverter.URI_MAP.

Yes. The same applies for platform:/plugin though and that works
without any additional registration.
