Marker annotation that can be used to define a logical "any setter" mutator -- either using non-static two-argument method (first argument name of property, second value to set) or a field (of type Map or POJO) - to be used as a "fallback" handler for all otherwise unrecognized properties found from JSON content. It is similar to XmlAnyElement in behavior; and can only be used to denote a single property per type. 

If used, all otherwise unmapped key-value pairs from JSON Object values
are added using mutator.

NOTE: ability to annotated fields was added in version 2.8; earlier only
methods could be annotated.

Optional argument that defines whether this annotation is active
or not. The only use for value 'false' if for overriding purposes.
Overriding may be necessary when used
with "mix-in annotations" (aka "annotation overrides").
For most cases, however, default value of "true" is just fine
and should be omitted.
