/**
* Optional Boolean value ("nullean"). Needed just because Java annotations
* can not take 'null' as a value (even as default), so there is no
* way to distinguish between explicit `true` and `false`, and lack of
* choice (related: annotations are limited to primitives, so
* {@link java.lang.Boolean} not allowed as solution).
*
* Note: although the use of `true` and `false` would be more convenient, they
* can not be chosen since they are Java keyword and compiler won't allow
* the choice. And since enum naming convention suggests all-upper-case,
* that is what is done here.
