Layers can be created and be GC'ed. If you look at jlink or javac then 
you'll see that they create a layer to load service providers (jlink 
plugins in the case of jlink). So a different model so what you might be 
looking for. All I can suggest is to try things out to get familiar with 
how it all works.
