I am pretty sure the default resource is pretty ignorant about compressed 
content. You can always write your own resource, like this::

  class ZippedResource(SomeBaseResource):
      filename = None
      ...

  ZippedJQuery = type('ZippedJQuery', (ZippedResource,),
      {'filename': 'jquery.js.zip'})

and in ZCML:

  <adapter
      factory="ZippedJQuery"
      permission="zope.View" />
