Ah, I see.  The URL would look something like 
http://localhost:8080/myapp/classpath*:/org/apache/shale/error.html

That's a funky URL but it seems to be valid.  I gave this a test and you are 
only one character from making this work.
The view id always starts with a "/".  The logic looks for the "classpath*:" at 
the start of the resource.
If it starts with "classpath*:", the class loader is used rather than the 
servlet context to load the resource.

java.lang.NullPointerException: Component not found 
"/classpath*:/org/apache/shale/error.html".

The ClayViewHandler might be able to strip off the character to support 
something like this but we might find other issue 
with the navigation.  

The from-view-id would expect the "/" character.
<from-view-id>/classpath*:org/blue/usecases/templates/home.html</from-view-id>
