I think the addition of an EmbeddedResources property containing all embedded resources in an IAssembly would be a nice addition.

Interface:

public interace IEmbeddedResource {
    string Name { get; }
    Stream GetContent();
}

public interface IAssembly {
    ...
    IEnumerable<IEmbeddedResources> EmbeddedResources { get; }
}

What do you think? I need funcitonality similar to this so if we discuss and agree on a good way to do it, your other users could benefit as well.

I agree this would be nice to have.

But at the same time, we don't want to store the (potentially huge) resource content in memory with the type system. We'd have to re-open the .dll file and extract the resource on demand. (XML documentation already works using the same principle)
