I think, it makes sense to access resources (= files) via the block protocol, e.g.:
<map:read src="block:skin://images/logo.jpg"/> Now, we could say that "images/logo.jpg" is resolved using a sitemap and therefore implemented as a pipeline, so resources are not served directory. Do you mean this (I guess not ;) )?
