I could be utterly wrong here, but I've always thought the Convert stuff
was String->Object, even though the API is convert(Class, Object);Object.
I think the second parameter is effectively a String for uses within
beanutils.

For Object->String, you would basically want to be looking at a Formatter
library [java.text.Format, with DateFormat being obvious choices].

Dunno though, could be a lot going on I haven't looked at much in
BeanUtils. Still trying to understand the whole Locale section.
