New issue 28 by tavia...@gmail.com: Specification should be updated for
Java 8 type annotations
http://code.google.com/p/atinject/issues/detail?id=28

Java 8 adds the ability for annotations to be specified on types whenever
they appear. This means it's now possible to write

@Inject Provider<@Leather Seat> seatProvider;

instead of

@Inject @Leather Provider<Seat> seatProvider;

It would be nice if the spec could be updated to allow the first usage, and
explicitly disallow duplicate qualifiers like

@Inject @Leather Provider<@Fabric Seat> seatProvider;

If there is going to be a change to JSR-330 for this I would like to be
involved. Either with jwells...@gmail.com or john....@oracle.com.
Thanks!
