No, I don't agree with this. It should be @AnnotationA. If you don't
pass in the method's annotations, there is no way to do per method
configuration.
For example:
@Compression(0.2)
@Path("/myimage")
@GET
public Image get() {}
@Compression(1.0)
@Path("/anotherImage")
@GET
public Image getAnother() {}
The @Compression annotation is my configuration annotation.
