C'mon Jozef, your approach is NOT portable. This will trash all other javax
ELResolvers. You fix a broken CDI paragraph by utterly and finally breaking another
framework. That's just no solution.

EL name.
I think further action is needed on this. Now that it has been confirmed
that "javax.enterprise.context.conversation" itself is not a valid EL
name we should either:
A) Require all CDI implementations to adapt the property-based approach
which allows this to be implemented portably (as Weld does)
B) Declare publicly that although the CDI spec declares the given name,
it is a bug and applications should not use the name. (What about
compatibility with existing applications?)
