In theory, a Tool can have Resources. Not sure how much sense there is
having them.

Depends on whether the programmer sets
${FRAMEWORK_NAME}_CURRENT_VERSION_NAME=<version> or not. If it isn't
set, GNUstep starts with an A, then a newer version would be B, ...

It's always safe to assume that there is a link named Current that
points to the current version.

"plugins" and preferences, would go under
ApplicationSupport/<application>/...
