Research direction

Start by locating the @Entry annotation and the code that reads its base and objectClasses attributes, then inspect how Spring Expression Language is handled elsewhere. Done means @Entry can accept SpEL for both values instead of requiring hardcoded attributes, with the behavior covered by relevant tests if they exist.
