 * <p>
 * A JavaBean nested within a BeanContext, may ask that BeanContext to 
 * provide an instance of a "service", based upon a reference to a Java
 * Class object that represents that service.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * If such a service has been registered with the context, or one of its 
 * nesting context's, in the case where a context delegate to its context
 * to satisfy a service request, then the BeanContextServiceProvider associated with 
 * the service is asked to provide an instance of that service.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The ServcieProvider may always return the same instance, or it may
 * construct a new instance for each request.
