/**
 * Extension point to provide views to show parameters in rebuild page.
 * 
 * If you want your custom {@link ParameterValue} to work with rebuild plugin,
 * do as followings:
 * <ol>
 *   <li>Define a class implementing {@link RebuildParameterProvider}.</li>
 *   <li>Annotate the class with {@link Extension}.
 *       You should specify option=true in {@link Extension} annotation
 *       to have your plugin work without rebuild plugin.</li>
 *   <li>Override {@link RebuildParameterProvider#getRebuildPage(ParameterValue)}.
 *       Don't forget to return <code>null</code> for parameter values
 *       other than your custom {@link ParameterValue}.
 *       There are two recommended ways to set values to {@link RebuildParameterPage}:
 *       <table>
 *           <tr>
 *               <th>&nbsp;</th>
 *               <th>Recommended 1</th>
 *               <th>Recommended 2</th>
 *           </tr>
 *           <tr>
 *               <th>clazz</th>
 *               <td>your custom {@link ParameterValue}</td>
 *               <td>the class implementing {@link RebuildParameterProvider}</td>
 *           </tr>
 *           <tr>
 *               <th>page</th>
 *               <td>a file in the resource directory of your custom {@link ParameterValue}</td>
 *               <td>a file in the resource directory of the class implementing {@link RebuildParameterProvider}</td>
