Custom converters have no access to field's meta-data

[cr3ativ3]

Custom converters have limited usefullnes since they cannot access meta-information about the field they're converting.

public class CreditCardView {
     ...
    @MaskedField
    @Selector(value="#credit-card-number", converter=CustomStringConverter.class)
    private String creditCardNumber;
    ...
}

public class CustomStringConverter implements ElementConverter<String> {

    @Override
    public String convert(Element node, Selector selector) {
        // would mask this field as 1234-5678-9012 -> ****-****-****-9012 , but cannot
        // know it's a @MaskedField since it has no access to field or its annotations
    }
}
