Yes, this was my late-night idea, which was evidently triggered by dimly recalling the use of the res-scheme by internet explorer. It is used to refer to files embedded as resources in dlls (and maybe exes, I cannot remember exactly). So let us forget about that!
Frankly, I have no idea about the res-scheme. If, as in the file-scheme, the double slash belongs to the general syntax, I would think that 'res:///' refers to the root directory. As you said there is also the reference res:///hyphenDicts/. You can also find res:///fonts/. To my understanding, these two directories and the userStyle.css should be at the same level as libexec/, var/, bin/, etc. (I say this, because I am not a linux user, and might be wrong). I can, however, not find hyphenDicts/, fonts/, and userStyle.css at this level. So I wonder whether these directories and this file are created and deleted with every opening or closing of a book, or maybe with starting and killing nickel. Now I remember that I once tried to reference a font in the css with the res-scheme, but I did not get it to work. Maybe I misunderstand how to resolve the path.
Just for information, you can find these res-references in libadobe.so too.
