I hadn't implemented it that way, but now that you mention it, I think
it's essential that it is because we don't want a developer to re-define
it for their own application, only to have the settings apply to
component libraries that already have their resources packaged in
META-INF/resources.

I sat down to write something to the Servlet EG and I immediately came
up with some questions that need answers before even asking for this
feature.
I'll reply to Alexander's email.
