 * This annotation should be used on a constructor of classes extending {@link WebServiceFeature} other than
 * Spec defined features, to help JAX-WS runtime recognize feature extensions.
 * 
 * 
 * For WebServiceFeature annotations to be recognizable by JAX-WS runtime, the feature annotation should point
 * to a corresponding bean (class extending WebServiceFeature). Only one of the constructors in the bean MUST be marked
 * with @FeatureConstructor whose value captures the annotaion attribute names for the corresponding parameters.

 * For example,
 * @see MemberSubmissionAddressingFeature

 * @see com.sun.xml.ws.developer.Stateful
