+1. This is required for claiming full Java6 compliance (JSR269).

Request permission to continue with implementing the JSR-269 (Java 6
Pluggable Annotation Processing) API in M7.
This work is partly complete but there is still a lot to do; many
individual methods and classes of this API are not yet implemented.
The umbrella bug request for this functionality is
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=154110. Its
implementation is required in order for the Eclipse JDT compiler to be
fully Java 6 compliant.
I want to set expectations: my sense is that this work will be
continuing right down to the wire, and we will ship without a perfect
and 100% complete implementation. This is an API with a lot of excess
functionality; our experience with Java 5 annotation processing makes me
believe that no one uses all of it, and what's most important is getting
the useful 80% out there and in the hands of users.
Thanks,
