/**
 * Annotation for {@link UI}s to enable the PushState navigation mode when
 * initializing a {@link Navigator} for it. PushState navigation is an
 * alternative way to handle URLs in the {@link Navigator}. It uses path info,
 * HTML5 push state and {@link PopStateEvent}s to track views and enable
 * listening to view changes.
 * <p>
 * <strong>Note:</strong> For PushState navigation to work, the
 * {@link DeploymentConfiguration} parameter
 * {@link DeploymentConfiguration#isSendUrlsAsParameters() SendUrlAsParameters}
 * must not be set to {@code false}.

 * @since 8.2
