I meant to raise this when I generalised the behaviour of them but it
slipped my mind.  They should be moved to a non-tag specific package now.

VelocityConfigurer (and respective FreeMarkerConfigurer) ensure a
SpringResourceLoader is available for use, possibly in addition to any
other resource loading strategy in the case of FreeMarker.  Does this not
cover requirements?  I'm a little unclear on what's missing here..

not from my side - personal events have overtaken me a little recently.=20
I'd intended contacting Seth again to catch up on this and ensure a
consistent approach for the three technologies.  My feeling is that it
should be fairly quick to add given the basic framework code is OK for
resource loading, but I've not really looked closely at it yet.
