When you bind sth, like #{mybean.someInteger}
The property resolver resolves the type of someInteger property to an
integer, and later this is used to figure out the necessary converter to use
automatically, in this case it is numberconverter to convert the submitted
string value to an integer. This is same in other cases.
In order to override this process, write a converter and add it via
<f:converter tag or the converter attribute. So your converter will be
picked before jsf tries to identify a converter by type.
