Yes.

Not sure what you mean, but Provider uses reflection to get the constructor and 
create new instances. By convention, when something is created via 
getInstance(alg), the SPI class would provide the arg-less constructor; when 
via getInstance(alg,params), it would provide the with-arg constructor.

It already had "This is to support the enhanced SecureRandom".
