This is a new feature that we engage ourselves to support forever, so an additional multiplier to the complexity of the resource management. I'm ok with this if we display a warning and maybe even refuse anything larger than X kb. Otherwise, Murphy's law/big number law, we will end up with people stuffing 1MB+ resources in their game and complaining "why did GDevelop/my browser/the backend crashed?"

I thought it was supported but not clear how to use.

In that case, maybe it's better not merging that and just answering to the issue that this is a hack that works but that might break in the future (but hopefully it won't be needed in the future).

Yes, I've commented on the thread! Let's hold this then, unless we get massive support for this or that we decide it's reasonable to support this officially.
