/**
 * An element annotated with this annotation is considered beta status.

 * Beta in this case means it is a fully new feature and in general seems
 * ready for production use but can be subject to change in the near future when
 * problems coming up with the proposed API. In addition to that it can contain
 * further bugs and due to that should be used with attention.
