-------------------------------------------------------------------
If you prevent visibility of packages to other regions then using
`@ProviderType` and `@ConsumerType` on the class level doesn't make a
difference as the whole package is invisible!
This request is about restricting which API region may implement a provider
type!

> API Regions: Support exposing a package but preventing extending classes or

> Key: SLING-10648
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-10648
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Feature Model
> Affects Versions: Feature Model API Regions Extension 1.3.6
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
>
> In some cases certain packages expose API interfaces which should not be
> implemented by any bundles outside the API region but still be exported for
> regular usage.
> This is similar to the annotation {{@ProviderType}} or {{@noimplement}} and
> {{@noextend}} from [Eclipse
> PDE|https://wiki.eclipse.org/PDE/API_Tools/Restrictions] but allows
> restricting to a certain context.
> This is triggered by the discussion in
> https://github.com/Adobe-Consulting-Services/acs-aem-commons/issues/2648.
