Answer 1

In addition to @BalusC answer I had to add a check for PrimeResourceHandler. Otherwise all resolvements of #{resource...} like #{resource['primefaces:spacer/dot_clear.gif']} inside the primefaces.css failed and the output stream of the parsed CSS file gets corrupted.

public class ExtendedBeanELResolver extends BeanELResolver {

    private static final String PRIMEFACES_RESOURCE_PREFIX = "primefaces:";

    @Override
    public Object getValue(ELContext context, Object base, Object property) throws NullPointerException,
            PropertyNotFoundException, ELException {
        if (property == null || base == null || base instanceof ResourceBundle || base instanceof Map
                || base instanceof Collection || base instanceof PrimeResourceHandler) {
            return null;
        }

        String propertyString = property.toString();

        if (!propertyString.startsWith(PRIMEFACES_RESOURCE_PREFIX) && propertyString.contains(".")) {
            Object value = base;

            for (String propertyPart : propertyString.split("\\.")) {
                value = super.getValue(context, value, propertyPart);
            }

            return value;
        } else {
            return super.getValue(context, base, property);
        }
    }
}
