How to suppress javadoc compiler warning for public static attributes? [message #635218]

I have turned on compiler for javadoc also since I would like to maintain javadoc as in Eclipse code. I have classes that has constants (public static final) and classes that extend NLS for i18n. The attributes are public and the names are self explanatory and they do not deserve javadoc. The compiler generates warning since the attributes are public and there is no way to suppress this. Or, is there a way to suppress?

Can this be a new feature request for JDT UI?

Add @SuppressWarnings("all") before the declaration.

Is it a good practice to suppress ALL warnings? I don't think so.

I use Checkstyle to check for proper javadoc - it throws too many wanrings and my editor is filled with Checkstyle comments. I guess there is no way out.

Well, how many other warnings do you expect on a field declaration? And
while we're at it: is it a good practice not to Javadoc your public
members? ;-)

If you take JavaUIMessages of JDT UI plug-in as example, how much you can add for each attribute?
