   * Application represents a per-web-application singleton object where applications based on JavaServer Faces (or
   * implementations wishing to provide extended functionality) can register application-wide singletons that provide
   * functionality required by JavaServer Faces. Default implementations of each object are provided for cases where the
   * application does not choose to customize the behavior.
   * </p>
   * 
   * <p>
   * The instance of {@link Application} is created by calling the <code>getApplication()</code> method of
   * {@link ApplicationFactory}. Because this instance is shared, it must be implemented in a thread-safe manner.
   * </p>

   * via
   * 
   * <pre>
   * FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication()

   * 
   * In particular, this provides a factory for UIComponent objects. It also provides convenience methods for creating
   * ValueBinding objects.
