The java editor shows marker for methods which are part of an implemented interface (white rectangle) or which overwrite a method from a superclass (green rectangle).
There is no rectangle if a subclass of the open java file overwrites the method.
It would be a nice feature because you will see at once if there exist subclasses which will be not affected by method changes (because they overwrite the method and don't call super).

There's a pre-existing plugin to do this.  'Implementors' I think is what it's called.  Very useful, but it still doesn't have the visual cue in the editor (last time I checked).
