Hi Dmitry,
Yes, I'm currently "patching" the Keycloak theme, but only by /adding/ HTML
files for my IdP which are dynamically
resolved by the Keycloak admin-console.
Sure, I could create a custom theme derived from the Keycloak base theme which contains
just my additional IdP
HTML files, but then I'd need to configure the theme for every realm where I need my
IdP.
I agree with you that patching the Keycloak theme by changing files is not a good idea,
but adding files required
for an extension like a custom IdP or an authenticator should IMHO be a supported use
case.
But isn't it what Theme Resources are exactly?

Extensions should IMHO allow declaring embedded resources
(templates/css/js/images) which should be resolved by Keycloak,
similar to how themes work.
Cheers,
Thomas
