Body: <p>I discovered via <a href="http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,35204" rel="nofollow">http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,35204</a> that the Case Resources available in CiviCase pull from the Case Resources group.  Is there any way to make it use a Smart Group?</p>
  
  <p>If not, my best workaround idea is to create the Smart Group I want, then run a script daily to synchronize that Smart Group with the Case Resources static group.</p>

  It uses whatever group is defined in
  `<custom_templates>/CRM/Case/xml/configuration/Settings.xml`
  
  Just note that it needs to match the "name" field in the database in civicrm\_group, which is usually different from the label that appears on screen. So if you create a group in the admin pages called "Ant Exterminators", the name might actually be "Ant\_Exterminators\_37". This would be true even if you deleted the current Case Resources group and recreated it - it might be "Case\_Resources\_43".
  
  I tried it and it works with a smart group (at least on a slightly older CiviCRM version).
