Description

The current solution approach seems to be moving away from having multiple annotations attached to a field more towards having the injectors support a set of parameters that do the same job.

Currently, it is possible to combine the

@Default (values = "myvalue")

annotation with a

@ValueMapValue

It would be nice if the default value could be handled as a parameter of ValueMapValue instead

So instead of:

@ValueMapValue
@Default (values = "myvalue")
String fieldname;

it would be nice to support:

@ValueMapValue(defaults = "myvalue")
String fieldname;

I think this would be in line with the solution approach taken for the injector specific annotations
