> The basic idea is to have a special parameter in annotations named context(s)
> @NotNull(message="doh", context = {"screen1Input", "screen2Input", "default"})
> "default" being a special context, the one applied every time (including in the DDL)
> no context or an empty context is equivalent to "default"
> The regular API are running against "default"
> Override the regular APIs with getInvalidValues(..., String context);
> Not entirely sure the idea will float, but it sounds like a non invasive way to do it.
> PS this might require to create @[Name]s annotations ie @NotNulls({@NotNull(message="m1", context="earlyStage"), @NotNull(message="m2")})
