 * Whether a member supports null values injected.
 *
 * Support for {@code Nullable} annotations in Guice is loose. Any annotation type whose
 * simplename is "Nullable" is sufficient to indicate support for null values injected.
 *
 * This allows support for JSR-305's 
 * javax.annotation.meta.Nullable annotation and IntelliJ IDEA's 
 * org.jetbrains.annotations.Nullable.
