It seems very straightforward to add algorithm aliases:

I know I can probably go in and change the way JSS reports the algorithm to
the JCE, but won't I run into trouble with needing the signed crypto
provider?
Yes, you will. You can apply for your own signing certificate
for the Mozilla-JSS provider.

Hot Damn! That was an easy fix...Now I can use Java's CertPath API to
build chains using JSS provider. Following Nelson's Advice, I'm
definitely going to file a bug/patch as it was 4 lines of code to add
the Java standard aliases.
Wan-Teh, the jar works fine for me with my test app. I'm guess the
signed jar only comes into play for applets/JNLP type stuff where
signing is enforced by the VM and not running a desktop app which seems
to have all the privileges it wants.
Thanks so much guys!!!!!!!
