As far as I recall (and it is a while since I looked at the EL code) that
parser just parses something - eg an attribute value - into bits that are an
expression and bits that are not. It doesn't parse the actual expressions.

Nothing does yet. That is still on the Tomcat 7 todo list. Oddly enough I am
working on it at the moment. First step will be to update the jtt file.

I'm not sure that refactoring is needed.
