Yeah, that was confusing to me as well. My plugin uses an unmanaged native
dll that I'm referencing from C# code. As described in the links below, it's
not possible to reference these unmanaged dlls from the VS project the same way
that COM libs or managed libraries can be referenced. Instead one must manually
copy the files to the output directory. That's exactly what resource-file is
here for, so it would fit my use-case perfectly.
