Is there an easy way to interop between Kotlin `data class`es and more traditional libs that require Bean/POJO annotations?

If I’m using a lib that requires annotations on a POJO/bean as well as normal getters/setters, I’d like to use a `data class` but I don’t think I can apply annotations to those fields.

annotations on `data` class properties in general can work -- this is from the Android Room documentation:

```
@Entity
data class User(
    @PrimaryKey var id: Int,
    var firstName: String?,
    var lastName: String?
)
```

so, try `@get:YourAnnotation` or `@field:YourAnnotation` and see if it works

Oh neat! I also just found <https://www.kotlin.nl/2018/02/06/kotlin-quick-tip-annotation-targets/> which says similar things. Thanks Mark!
