I think it's just TBD because of the issues with our current Resource
classes vs. Spring's. But yeah, I don't see any reason it couldn't just be
done that way.

That is one of the major issues, yes, and just generally things like
controlling schema validation at all. It's just totally ridiculous to have
Spring software not start up because their web site is down. It's one of
those "what in the hell are they thinking?" issues.
