Review comment:
       Package name is wrong and this is not just for this package. Since this class is only public for access from other packages, we could/should only say "Constants provided as public only for our own implementation, you can consider this private for now."

Review comment:
       Fix comment, there are no methods in this class. All that the comment needs to say is "Prevents instantiation." IMO.

Review comment:
       The since tag is wrong, pom.xml currently has 3.7.3 as the next version, but, since this is a new public element, we could bump the version up to 3.8.0. Let's keep 3.7.3 since this is just a constant that happens to be public for internal convenience.
