Extra resources for plugins

If I wrote a plugin that interacted with the DOM (I know it has limited use and is slightly off what C2 is about, but netherless I think there are lots of useful applications for it) how would you go about adding extra resources to a plugin so they get exported as well?

IE some images.

There's no way yet, but a good workaround in the mean time would be to nick the texture of an existing sprite - the texture_img member of the Sprite type is a browser Image class for the texture. For example, this.runtime.types["MySprite"].texture_img would get the image for a sprite called "MySprite", which you can then put in the DOM somewhere.

Out of curiosity how is that handled if the project doesn't have the sprite object available? (The user didn't add it).

It's just ordinary javascript accesses, so this.runtime.types["MySprite"] will return undefined if the object type with the name "MySprite" doesn't exist, and this.runtime.types["MySprite"].texture_img will also return undefined if there is an object type called "MySprite", but for some reason they gave that name to a non-Sprite object (e.g. text).
