kotlinlang

i am slightly confused at what i can do with annotations
what i want is this: ` List&lt;@MyAnnotation String&gt;` and there seems to be a target for that: `AnnotationTarget.TYPE`

but i am not entirely sure this is available at runtime or how to retrieve thisi n Lists and Maps
(the only way i can guess that this is the right target is because idea autofixes this for me)

there is also the target `TYPE_PARAMETER` which is labeled as `unsupported yet`

if this is truly unsupported then the best option would be some wrapper annotations like `@ListElement`  , `@MapKey` , `@MapValue`
but the limitations of no supertypes on annotations and cannot use  `Array&lt;Annotation&gt;`  as parameter would force me to add a field for every annotation type i want to add
and then i cannot have default values on annotation classes.. leading the user to have to add 20+ (exaggerated) empty arays in the arguments

any suggestions for how to solve this.. cleanly ?
