The 787 - What happens in a fire?

With the new 787, and the amount of non metal in it, what effect is that going to have in case of a crash landing, and a resulting fire?

Also what would happen because of the way that this thing is manufactured if there was a side impact from the food delivery van? I assume that the skin would crack, rather than bend like metal would.
