:) That’s how I do it right now and it works - that’s fine. Imagine I want to make the plugin availabe to the community. How will I do that? Upload the plugin + theme override? I made friends with the idea of using "portlets" for application dashboards. Defining them in one place and show them on different places/applications. Makes a few things easier to deliver custumizations to my customers. In my current case I need additional JS/CSS files required by some portlets.
Nevertheless I guess I have to use the theme override solutions right now. Thanks for your time!!!

Your plugin's ofbiz-component.xml starts with <ofbiz-component name="my-plugin" ... location="webapp/my-plugin" ... Your Javascript is in plugins/my-plugin/webapp/my-plugin/vendors/myscript.js You reference it as <property name="VT_FTR_JAVASCRIPT['add']" value="component://my-plugin/vendors/myscript.js" /> in your Theme.xml All out of my mind but I think this should work.
