Except for the missing entry point: creating a Resource. Plenty of
OBR methods return Resources, but creating one from a Bundle is not an
available operation -- at least publicly.

Are you thinking of the work done in the

  org.apache.felix.bundlerepository.
    LocalRepositoryImpl.
      LocalResourceImpl.initialize()

method? Obviously that's all Felix-specific, though there is a call
path there that is at least public:

  new LocalRepositoryImpl.LocalResourceImpl( bundle );

I'll try using LocalResourceImpl, but it would be nice if there was a
blessed, non-Felix-specific, OBR interface-based way to achieve the
same goal.

Please let me know if you discover an alternate approach I should try
first.
