/**
 * Allows you to provide metadata, such as CacheLoaderConfig type via annotation so that the CacheLoader or CacheStore
 * need not be instantiated by the configuration parser to set up the cache loader configuration.
 * 
 * This annotation is not necessary, since {@link org.infinispan.loaders.CacheLoader#getConfigurationClass()} still
 * needs to be implemented and serves the same purpose.  It is, however, a runtime optimization.
