Description

In the Scala API, you have the option to declare forwarded fields via the
withForwardedFields method.
It would be nice to have sth. similar for read fields, as otherwise one needs to create a class, which I personally try to avoid for readability.

Maybe grouping all annotations in one function and have a first parameter indicating the type of annotation is also an option, if you plan on adding more annotations and want to keep the interface smaller.
