Editing modResource from the Front End?

Well, to be honest I'd prefer to do it all via custom tables an xpdo. At this point I don't know how many records I'll have and sorting, searching, etc can be a bit slow and clunky with tvs from what I understand.

Extending mod resource seemed like a solid option to gain the extra fields and functionality I was hoping for. Also, by creating new resources I figured modx's native friendly urls could be used and I wouldn't have to hack that up for it to work.
