Description
Originally by blackbeltdev
Setting a custom vaadin resource location doesn't work with custom layouts.
vaadinServlet.setInitParameter(Constants.PARAMETER_VAADIN_RESOURCES, "/static");
I know that this can be worked around using classloader and inputstream but would be nice if this worked out of the box with non-default static file locations.

Research direction
Start by tracing how custom layouts resolve static resources when the servlet parameter Constants.PARAMETER_VAADIN_RESOURCES is set to "/static". Verify the behavior with a custom layout and confirm that resources are loaded from the configured non-default location rather than only the default path.
