Setting this via a system property cannot be done as this is a global override. We could simply externalize the default factory name to an attribute of the jboss server info mbean and fallback to the jdk default if it cannot be found. I don't know if an extension class can get access to a class from the jdk rt.jar via the ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().
