Wow.. We utilize ResourceBundleControlProvider SPI and our software heavily depends on it [https://github.com/IBM-Bluemix/gp-java-client]. This is only the way to inject custom resource loading logic without affecting existing code.

Does this project rely on the extension mechanism?

Yes. See https://github.com/IBM-Bluemix/gp-java-client#using-resourcebundlecontrolprovider-spi-java-8-or-later

The jar file contains java.util.spi.ResourceBundleControlProvider [https://github.com/IBM-Bluemix/gp-java-client/blob/master/src/main/resources/META-INF/services/java.util.spi.ResourceBundleControlProvider], so a consumer of this library just need to drop the jar in the Java's extension directory.

We suggest people to take this approach, because it does not require existing code changes at all (that means, they can easily enable/disable the extended feature with no source code changes). Of course, the library works fine if the consumer of this library explicitly specify the ResourceBundleControl implementation, but such approach does not work well if resource bundles are consumed indirectly.
