I suggested that once on this list, and a member of the core Android
team pointed out that this is a really bad idea, since those resource
values might change, or the underlying graphics might change.

Since then, I have just been copying them into your project as needed,
referencing them under my own resource ID. Though I still have a handful
of book examples I need to clean up in this regard...
