      The @value javadoc tag allows a constant value to be inserted into the text. However, no formatting options over that value are provided. At times, control of formatting is essential to present the information in a useful way, such as presenting bit masks in hex rather than decimal.

      (The utility of having a such a formatting feature was observed during the course of work on JDK-8266670.)
