I don't argue with that, but the context of my example was "assuming
my team has the convention of always putting mappings on properties",
so in such a case I'd want to use the second.

I really have no strong feeling against how you all think it should be
or any spec wording, my only concern is what happens when someone does
have a different interpretation or opinion. AFAIK today these are
ignored: would be nice to eventually be able to strictly validate (for
whatever decison you might take).

I think that's important to be taken into consideration while you work
on how Jandex reads things: to be able to provide strict validation,
you will need to be able to read annotations from both positions.
