Rather than manually maintaining the annotation-related properties files, 
why don't you use a program or script to scan the codebase for classes 
containing each target annotation and writes the names of the classes 
containing it to a configuration file. This should be a very simple job 
if you're running a development system that supports the 'find' utility.
