Description

At the moment Sightly data-sly-resource expects a resource path. The are moments where we already have a Resource that we need to include (such as including current resource or iterating and including children) and this leads to conversions such as Resource -> path -> Resource which are not desirable performance-wise.

We should properly handle a resource passed as a parameter, such as:

<sly data-sly-resource="${resource @ resourceType='some/type'}"/>
