I think it is safe to say that all annotations in
org.apache.tapestry.annotations apply ONLY to Tapestry component
classes (components, mixins, pages, base).
Oops, that's not quite true; theres just a couple mixed in there that
are modifiers for @Inject and can work with IoC dependency injection.
With hindsight, I would have separated the component annotations from
the more widely used annotations.
