ResourceFactory not extensible

           Summary: ResourceFactory not extensible
           Product: Velocity
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Source
        AssignedTo: velocity-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: cmore@atg.com


The class org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.ResourceFactory provides
no mechanism for allowing sub-classes of Template or ContentResources
to be returned.

Since ResourceManagerImpl makes a call to ResourceFactory.getResource(),
the only way to override the behavior is to subclass ResourceManagerImpl
and cut-paste-then-modify the code for loadResource().

At the very least, moving the ResourceFactory.getResource() call into
a separate, protected method in ResourceManagerImpl would greatly simplify
sub-classing Templates and/or ContentResources.
