Default question

My dictionary says:

You should be careful in crossing the street.=You should be careful when/while you cross the street.

Yeh, probably. But isn't it possible to take such "in" as "concerning" or "with regard to", as in, say, "a country rich in minerals" or "She was not lacking in courage"?
