In a case like this the issue is that someone modifying the code won't
know what application to test.  I sometimes add comments about
particular applications, e.g. see the note about Eclipse in
ResourceBundle.  I don't think there's much wrong with this practice.

In this particular case I'd like to see a comment mentioning jboss,
and perhaps an @specnote in the javadoc.
