> Another approach to take is to have nested interface as follows ...
This is very creative. However, it does not seem that the nested annotation is
designed for this purpose.
In java.lang.annotation, this is an
[...@retention|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/annotation/Retention.html]
annotation, which is very similar to our @Audience annotation. @Retention is
declared with a RetentionPolicy value, where RetentionPolicy is an enum. We
should do the same.
