Description
**[James Howe](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=jameshowe)** opened **[MSHADE-233](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHADE-233?redirect=false)** and commented
Just spent a long time debugging why the shaded jar was missing a resource, and it turns out I just typoed the file.
It would be much better if this wasn't a silent failure.
At least a warning should be logged, if not a full error.

Research direction
Start by locating IncludeResourceTransformer and tracing how it handles a missing resource while building a shaded jar. Determine how the requested configurable warning or error behavior should be represented, then verify that missing-file cases produce the intended outcome without silently succeeding.
