I would suggest _not_ to create another provider for grids (for use as a vector layer). A grid is not really made of vector features, and lots of vector operations do not make much sense for grid. An interesting approach might be to use QgsPluginLayer class, but IMHO a grid is not even a layer... e.g. does it make any sense to draw some other layers on top of a grid? For me a grid is a good candidate to be implemented as another type of decoration (currently there is north arrow, scale bar and copyright label). A decoration is drawn on top of the map when map rendering has finished. And symbology can still be applied when drawing grid as a decoration.
