 * Attached to a listener interface to indicate which scope its events are generated in.

 * Events generated in a particular scope are visible to listeners in the same scope and ancestor scopes.
 * Events are not visible to listeners in descendent scopes.
 *
 * This annotation is used primarily to indicate to developers the scopes where this listener are available. There is also
 * some validation when a broadcaster or listener of this type is used in an incorrect scope.
