jimage *can* return non module resources by the other API, which just takes the full jimage location path/name.
The module+name API is really just a slightly more efficient convenience for the case where the caller has both separately.

For reference, I'm writing a lot of changes around jimage stuff right now, and I don't think I've seen any case where an error code would be of any benefit, as opposed to just returning zero.
