*Shudder*. Anyway, for my two cents, I'd consider two avenues: a static
map where the methods pick their fields (perhaps IdentityHashMap) or, if
the performance hit is a concern, perhaps a custom annotation and an
annotation parser that would inject the fields into the source code
pre-compilation (I'm pretty sure that's possible, although I don't
remember how exactly).
