 * In it's most common usage, indicates a {@link com.redhat.darcy.ui.api.elements.Findable},
 * {@link com.redhat.darcy.ui.api.elements.Element}, {@link com.redhat.darcy.ui.api.View}, or
 * {@link java.util.List Lists} of those types, is required as a part of a View's load condition
 * -- that is, the page will not be considered loaded until all required fields satisfy their load
 * condition. Each field type satisfies load conditions differently. For more details, see
 * {@link com.redhat.darcy.ui.matchers.LoadConditionMatcher}.
 * 
 * It is best to annotate as many elements as possible or write a specific load condition via
 * overriding {@link com.redhat.darcy.ui.api.View#isLoaded()} to ensure that every View's load
 * condition is unique.
 * 
 * For {@link com.redhat.darcy.ui.api.ViewElement ViewElements}, these annotations also communicate
 * how to calculate if such an element is "displayed" or "present."
