I've written MANY javadocs like this, and I agree they are useless. They are derived from draconian build processes that fail builds when there's not a javadoc present. So for trivial methods like setters and getters this is the kind of comment/javadoc you get from me. Of course, the other side of this coin is that without these draconian build processes I probably wouldn't write the useful kinds of javadocs I write for significant methods.
