  Personally, I'd say one would want two kinds of resources.  Those that are 
predefined, and those that are dynamically created.  This would actually be a 
requirement for mod_filter to do some better things, such as filtering content 
by target, aka, Cell, WinJab, IRC, etc..

  Currently, no.  Personally, I agree with you that Resources should, and in 
the past have planned to be, much more then they are currently..

  See above.  Alot of this is based on mod_filter.  mod_filter should have the 
ability to state what resources are stored offline and *ONLY* delivered to the 
resource, which are cc'd to another resource, etc..etc..
