1. Using EJB as an example, how does one say "I am a provider".  There is no "i am 
the EJB container" interface to implement so what exactly are we looking for?

EJB is not an example.  the provider stuff works for 2 situations:
The activator and locator were added to the EJB spec jar.  Was that a mistake?
I was wrong... thinking of ejb 3.  You need a META-INF/services file for 
EJBContainerProvider and the SPI-Provider header in the manifest.  EJB 3.1 is 
an example.

BTW the only way I've talked the maven-bundle-plugin into adding this header is to supply a 
value such as<SPI-Provider>true</SPI-Provider>   Anyone know a value-free way?
I encountered the same problem and arrived at the same solution point you did. I never found any means of getting the header included without a value specified.
