I mentioned auto-loading of constants because it would be nice to have
single consistent auto-loading mechanism in PHP for every importable

and well constants.
The current composer approach of simply loading the file on every
request regardless of whether you need it ever or not works nicely too.

All resource related stuff is meant to die anyways from what I read and
