2.3.14: @FacesConverter injection with CDI is not supported - NPE

[Toru47]

CDI is not working as expected in custom FacesConverter despite set to managed = true. The injected member keeps null:

ApplicationBean.java:

package foo.bar;

import javax.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped;
import javax.faces.annotation.FacesConfig;

@FacesConfig(version = FacesConfig.Version.JSF_2_3)
@ApplicationScoped
public class ApplicationBean {
}

ComDateConverter.java:

package foo.bar.common.converters;
 
import java.util.Objects;
 
import javax.faces.component.UIComponent;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import javax.faces.convert.DateTimeConverter;
import javax.faces.convert.FacesConverter;
import javax.inject.Inject;
 
import org.jboss.logging.Logger;
 
@FacesConverter(value = "comDateTimeConverter", managed = true) // <-- CDI should work!
public class ComDateTimeConverter extends DateTimeConverter {
    @Inject
    private Logger logger; // <-- Keeps null.
 
    @Override
    public Object getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent component,
            String newDateAsString) {
        Objects.requireNonNull(logger); // <-- NPE!
        return super.getAsObject(context, component, newDateAsString);
    }
}

faces-config.xml:

<converter>
    <converter-id>javax.faces.DateTime</converter-id>
    <converter-class>foo.bar.common.converters.ComDateTimeConverter</converter-class>
</converter>

test.xhtml

<h:inputText ...
  <f:convertDateTime ...

Or is this issue also fixed with #5075?

Tests with WildFly 21.0.0.Final and JDK 11.0.3.
