You have to poll your layers to find that information out, and they
have to be written to answer that question (what their data bounds
are). That's not a general question that all layers will answer.
There is a com.bbn.openmap.util.DataBounds object that
com.bbn.openmap.util.DataBoundsProviders can be asked for, so you
probably want to make your layers DataBoundsProviders. Then you need
to make an object ask your layers what your data bounds are, and then
contact the MapBean. The MapBean can tell it what it's current
Projection is, and then you can figure out what the scale is that you
need to fit all the data on the map. The
com.bbn.openmap.gui.menu.DataBoundsViewMenuItem does something like
this, but only for one layer at a time.

See above answer. Sorry, I was answering a different question before.

It doesn't, OpenMap layers current expect all layers to be displaying
decimal degree lat/lon coordinates.

Not at the moment, but we hope to be implementing some sort of
translation mechanism soon.

No, but that's part of the plan mentioned above.
