Hmm, this example hadn't occured to me.
Yeah, I was surprised when I discovered this fact (by accident). With the
right control over the context in which the records are encoded, we may be
able to prevent this. Certainly we can force the use of "resource" in the
WS context. I haven't had the chance to fully understand the
ramifications of this.
