[ckan-dev] API: delete resource via its name value

Hi,
if I want to delete a dataset, I can use this kind of command:

```
http --json POST https://mysite.com/api/3/action/dataset_purge \
    Authorization:xxxxxx \
    id=test
```

"test" is a dataset name and not the id of the dataset.

If I run the same kind of command for a resource

```
http --json POST https://mysite.com /api/3/action/resource_delete \
    Authorization:zzzzzzz \
    id="resourcename"
```

the resource is not deleted. It seems I must use only the resource id and
not its name. Is it right?

I'm using CKAN 2.8.2.

Thank you
