misleading

                 Key: TAP5-1014
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1014
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: tapestry-ioc
    Affects Versions: 5.1.0.5
            Reporter: Igor Drobiazko
            Priority: Minor


Using another renetion policy policy than RUNTIME for a marker annotation leads 
to the following exception

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Marker annotation class 
org.example.Blue is not valid because it is not visible at runtime. Add a 
@RetentionPolicy(RUNTIME) to the class.

A proper mesage is: 

Add a @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) to the class.
