As we go along there should be a wiki page describing exactly how this works for a given release. I'm just doubtful about persisting it in this file. People come to count on reading the file and you can't lightly stop writing it even if it becomes a problem.

I think that as long as we use a predictable code source URL for deployments it doesn't have to be a specific filesystem location (especially if it varies between expanded and non-expanded deployments).  Maybe in this case, the resource loader should use a VFS URL or even a special deployment URL type (e.g. "deployment:///foo.war").
