That was the original suggestion but that package is more for 
annotations types that are used as meta annotations (@Native should have 
gone elsewhere but we can't change that now).
compiler-dev would be a better list to discuss this. As I recall, 
javax.annotation.processing was chosen in preference to 
java.lang.reflect or a new package for annotations.
