I just realized there is another issue that I came across with assets.
We use netbeans and it doesn't support having META-INF/assets very well for maven projects.

Define "doesn't support very well". I don't use NetBeans, so I got curious. :) From the IDE and Maven side, it's just another folder inside src/main/resources.

I have a simple proposal, why not /t5-assets and /t5-js-modules/ from root? This way META-INF isn't involved, it's in the place where IDEs and web apps expect assets and all other goals of a single place for library assets is accomplished.

I'm not sure, Howard can tell you exactly why, but putting assets in /META-INF seems to be a pattern many frameworks have been using. In addition, it's a special path in the Servlets 3.0 specification: https://blogs.oracle.com/alexismp/entry/web_inf_lib_jar_meta. And I just found a discussion last year about it, me and Lenny included, hehehe: http://apache-tapestry-mailing-list-archives.1045711.n5.nabble.com/META-INF-assets-in-5-4-td5714677.html.
