To be honest not sure what this really buys you. Basically you have
to follow
the META-INF/service/{intf-name} pattern for naming your locator file and that
locator file, as far as I know, can only have a single entry naming the impl

then? The actual resolution code is trivial.
Well, just that when users (programmers) see such a file there's a higher chance that
they know what it's doing and how is the services discovery working.
Apart from that, can't think of anything :)
