luke w patterson commented on MBUILDHELPER-4:
---------------------------------------------

A good use case for this is when I want to bring in a resource coming from 
dependency:unpack and tweak the resource targetPath.

Rather than copying directly to the target folder and bypassing 
resources:resources, I could do something like you see in the attachment:
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/attachment/41089/add-resource.txt

I think this would be consistent with add-source and attach-artifact in that 
you would "introduce" the resource to the active MavenProject instance.  The 
MavenProject can then be aware of all the project resources.
