 * \brief 1-to-1 stream annotator testing block. FOR TESTING PURPOSES ONLY.
 * \ingroup debug_tools_blk
 *
 * \details
 * This block creates tags to be sent downstream every 10,000
 * items it sees. The tags contain the name and ID of the
 * instantiated block, use "seq" as a key, and have a counter that
 * increments by 1 for every tag produced that is used as the
 * tag's value. The tags are propagated using the 1-to-1 policy.
 *
 * It also stores a copy of all tags it sees flow past it. These
 * tags can be recalled externally with the data() member.
 *
 * Warning: This block is only meant for testing and showing how to use the
 * tags.
