You can assume WorkManager to be a container managed thread pool. Using WorkManager one can schedule work workManager.schedule(Work work) and schedule would get a thread from container managed thread pool and process the work (Work implements java.lang.Runnable). It has capability to add dependency of work completion on other work. Work has life cycle and user can define listener for listening to those work life cycle events.

I personally believe in both approach standardize first then implement Or Innovate/implement first and then standardize, In our case we need to follow later :)...

Can you give us some more detail on what JSR-237 requires from the app server?
