Description

It is sometimes useful to be able to include another resource and override the extension at the same time.

My scenario is that I am routing all requests through an entry point /content/maven.html and then serving resources based on the suffix.

If I a binary file is requested, it should be downloaded ( by forcing the extension to be null ), but instead the html extension is used, which means the HTML Renderer kicks in.
