Could replace this with

You could also have used ${__P(java.vendor)} and used the existing property function.
Not quite as neat, but the __P() function also supports defaults.

See above. Or use :
JMeterUtils.getPropDefault(propertyName, propertyDefault);
However, there is no need to write any code.
${__P(property.name)} should work in any test element.

Better to post patches as attachments to a Bugzilla report.
