 * Use this to meta-annotate XxxFeature.Require annotations, so that those
 * annotations can be used to decide whether to apply a test to a given
 * class-under-test.
 * 

 * This is needed because annotations can't implement interfaces, which is also
 * why reflection is used to extract values from the properties of the various
 * annotations.
