Yes, I do have some concerns.

I think the public API needs to be better documented.
There are still a lot of public classes that AFAICT don't really
belong in the API.
For example
JceCipher
OpensslCipher
JavaCryptoRandom
OpensslCryptoRandom
OsCryptoRandom
These need to be made private/package protected or moved into an
internal package, or at the very least clearly documented as internal.

Also the way that classes are instantiated is very awkward, as
properties are not as easy to use as plain variables - String/boolean
etc - and properties don't offer any type validation.
Since properties are used in the constructors, it's not enough for 3rd
parties to just implement the CryptoRandom interface - they also have
to provide a constructor which takes a Properties instance.

Indeed I wonder why there is a CryptoRandom interface - would it not
be better for JavaCryptoRandom to extend java.util.Random? The other
implementations of CryptoRandom do.
Or maybe none of them should extend j.u.Random?
