If I were to set global parameters, would I need to define it like so:
Splunk-monitor {

Splunk-user {

applies to both:
Splunk {
   common_parameter => blah
}

I'm not expert in custom providers, but if you will write only two custom providers, what's the problem with first approach? The KISS principle...

Because even if second approach works, everyone reading your manifests won't know what the *_!#($ 'Splunk' is... when you don't use it anywhere but in that place setting the global parameters.

So in your case I would keep it simple and define it "twice", once per resource type.
