/**
* Indicates that the target method should be called when the {@link Page} it belongs to is
* about to be removed from the navigation content panel.
* <p>
* The target method is permitted an optional parameter of type {@link NavigationControl}. If the
* parameter is present, the page navigation will not be carried out until
* {@link NavigationControl#proceed()} is invoked. This is useful for interrupting page navigations
* and then resuming at a later time (for example, to prompt the user to save their work before
* transitioning to a new page).
* <p>
* The target method's return type will must be {@code void}.
* <p>
* The target method can have any access type: public, protected, default, or private.
* <p>
* If the target method throws an exception when called, behaviour is undefined.
