/**
 * The <code>FaultAction</code> annotation is used inside an {@link Action}
 * annotation to allow an explicit association of a WS-Addressing
 * <code>Action</code> message addressing property with the <code>fault</code>
 * messages of the WSDL operation mapped from the exception class.
 * <p>
 * In this version of JAX-WS there is no standard way to specify
 * <code>Action</code> values in a WSDL and there is no standard default value.  It is intended that,
 * after the W3C WG on WS-Addressing has defined these items in a recommendation,
 * a future version of JAX-WS will require the new standards.
