The paths of shared resources are predictable, meaning that you can
hard code them. They follow the form: resources/<class
name>/<resource>, for instance:
src="resources/org.apache.wicket.examples.debug.InspectorBug/bug.png"

You can register class aliases if you want to make this shorter. Also
note that you don't have to explicitly register packaged resources.
