 * {@code Bootstrap} methods must be static, and may declare arguments of types annotated with {@link Section}.

 * <p>
 * When the bootstap form is submitted, the sections requested in the method arguments are populated with the values filled by the
 * user, and the method is invoked within the context of a write transaction. Each {@link Bootstrapper} class may define multiple
 * {@link Bootstrap} methods, and they will all run within the same transaction, meaning that failure of any method will cause the
 * whole process to fail.
