Research direction

Start by reviewing the Jakarta Faces resource-serving specification and the existing rule that permits EL evaluation only for CSS resources. Define how applications configure eligible file extensions and what resource-serving behavior should result. Done means the specification clearly permits configurable extensions for dynamic resource content.
