1. Are you sure? I'm almost positive that the config variable
"resourcePaths" will not be processed. It should be 'pluginpaths'. Chances
are you example is just firing Zend_Application_Resource_View and not your
custom resource.
2. Even if the example you listed works, you are still missing the major
point of my post, which relates to being able to use resources from
different namespaces even in the case where there is overlap. This is due
to issues with the plugin loader.
