lang-vm.html [1] does not seem to mention this but perhaps it is too old. Seems I can indeed write

module foo {}
hibernateconfig "stuff.xml";
Hi mom!

and that compiles. So, how would such things be checked for syntax or semantics? How would different tools avoid clobbering each other's metadata?

Annotations at least have a well-defined syntax, and a well-defined mechanism for semantic validation (JSR 269).
