Once people become familiar with wave then protocols and accepted

a work/holiday/pictures of my cat! wave" phenomenon irritating as well
Is it possible to remove yourself from a wave and make it so people
can't add you back on?
Not yet - they've not added a 'remove participant from wave' feature yet
(hence its still preview).
You can however select the wave in your inbox and click 'trash' from the
buttons at the top. My understanding is that the difference between that
and the 'archive' button is that an archived wave will pop back into you
inbox if someone edits it; but a trashed one will not.
I guess I would have expected some sort of 'you have been added to this
wave, do you accept?' notification and a notification to all other users
that you got added
I think you have to think about it more like a wiki, where items in your
inbox are ones you want to hand. Ones you archive are ones you want to
know about changes to; and ones you trash you are no longer interested in.
Being added as a participiant is therefore kinda (not totally) like being
sent a link to that wiki page with the invitation to edit it.
