This is something I've wanted to do for a while, but for the reasons mentioned in the comments, I've been unable to complete yet. I figured I'd at least merge what does exist so far in case someone else would like to pick this up. It's a bit of a brain hurdle / monster, because the tricky part is refactoring the core engine so that this fits in nicely. Perhaps someone will have more time and/or less tunnel vision than I to either merge something or sketch out some ideas on the path forwards. I think it's a useful goal because if recursive resources are possible, it could force the core engine into a more elegant design. Happy hacking!
