If this mirrors the behavior of Action (in the way variables are presented to the fallback resource) then FallbackAction makes the most sense. If it is restricted to a filespec at the same dir level, then perhaps FallbackFilename makes the most sense. (If it can be at the same level or in another path, FallbackFile or FallbackResource might be better). Rich? Pipe up - you know we programmers are useless for naming things. You make short, sweet and to the point choices. E.g., ponies.
