I'm going to bump this with some more information... I see that Application's getSharedResources() is final, as is SharedResources's get() method. So, that doesn't seem like it would work. SharedResourceRequestTarget is referenced in several places directly (not using a factory), so that's probably not ideal. Also, there would be a lot of code duplication in it's get() method. So, still looking for a solution to this issue. Seems pretty critical for extending an application in the cloud.
