Yes.
The mechanism you're referring to is jboss-structure.xml.

Even if you use this mechanism, we still need to read into the jar, its
META-INF.
But, I thought you said resources aren't discovered through VFS? :)
Actually, in MC/AS you never use anything else than VFS to
navigate/read
some stuff in file system.
Finding a resource should never require scanning and creating metadata
for the entire jar/filesystem.
If you do, it's bad/wrong usage. Since that's why we wrote
VFS. ;-)
Really, like I don't know WTF VFS was invented...Please...
