----------------------------------------------------------------

Also, for generator annotations like {{@ToStirng}} and {{@EqualsAndHashCode}}, is there any need to retain beyond {{SOURCE}} (they're currently set to {{RUNTIME}})?  {{@TupleConstructor}} is set to {{SOURCE}}, which is preferred IMO.

> Groovy collector annotations {{@Canonical}}, {{@Immutable}}, {{@RecordType}} and {{@CompileDynamic}} have missing or misleading {{Retention}} and {{Target}} metadata.  _Note:_ there may be others...
> {{@Canonical}} and {{@CompileDynamic}}: missing {{Retention}} and {{Target}}
> {{@Immutable}} and {{@RecordType}}: {{RetentionPolicy}} is {{RUNTIME}} but should be {{SOURCE}} since meta-annotation is not retained.
