Neil, we were actually discussing that in another thread =>
http://archives.java.sun.com/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0904&L=JSR-314-OPEN&P=16181

My point was a slight variation of yours. I'm concerned that these composite
component templates are exposed as public pages. I would prefer if we mirror
the resources directory under WEB-INF so that you can have both a public and
a private repository.

..but as it stands now, the folder name resources is hard-coded. As Ed
points out, you have to use a Facelets configuration file to relocate the
template.
