Provides with underscores are difficult to write (at least for me).
Provides locked to the tomcat version (e.g. servlet5) makes a virtual provide
meaningless because tomcat versions are not equal to the servlet/jsp api
versions.
I would propose using the apinameMajorMinor versions only - servlet25, jsp21
and el10(elapi10??) which is missing as a provide now.
