Description

Application.getExpressionFactory() states the following for Faces 4.0:

The implementation must return the ExpressionFactory from the Expression Language container by calling jakarta.el.ELManager.getExpressionFactory().
 

Previous to Faces 4.0, for instance, Faces 3.0 the same Application.getExpressionFactory() states the following:

The implementation must return the ExpressionFactory from the Jakarta Server Pages container by calling
 JspFactory.getDefaultFactory().getJspApplicationContext(servletContext).getExpressionFactory().
 

Currently, for Faces 4.0 our behavior is incorrect and it needs to be changed to leverage the ELManager API.

For reference, there is a TCK Challenge relating to this behavior.
