Re: [platform-releng-dev] improved checking for internal references

If this feature request was implemented, our compiler would accept a
superset of the Java language, and no longer be compliant.
One could imagine using Javadoc, and then some tooling to convert Javadoc
into annotation (once migrating to 1.5 JRE).

If bug 76906 (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=76906) were
implemented, could we get around this problem for annotations?
