I'm not sure about the convertor, but could you instead just do:
String localCode = (String)ExpressionEvaluatorManager.evaluate("locale",
expr, String.class, this, pageContext);
Locale locale = new Locale(localCode);
At least that way your only asking the ExpressionEvaluatorManager to deal
with a basic type that by default it knows how to handle. I know, it's
not one concise line then :)
