      The warning

      The annotation type Foo should not be used as a superinterface for FooLiteral

      seems unnecessary, since the pattern of implementing an annotation type is shown as an example in the specification.
      Also, it makes the behaviour of JBoss Tools quite strange in that the code generated by the Annotation Literal Wizard raises a warning.
