java java-7 nio2

Is there an API to get a classpath resource (e.g. what I'd get from Class.getResource(String)) as a java.nio.file.Path? Ideally, I'd like to use the fancy new Path APIs with classpath resources.

This one works for me:

return Paths.get(ClassLoader.getSystemResource(resourceName).toURI());
