While tracing an issue, I noticed that the injection engine drills down to the Object.class to find methods with the wanted annotation. In this case specifically @CanExecute. 

Obviously it will not find that annotation in Object.class.

Assuming that...

* This also happens for other annotations (@Focus, etc..)
* The annotation is optional (e.g. it is likely that it is not used)
* The annotation is queried a lot (e.g. @CanExecute)

...we could shave some milliseconds during rendering if we block the inspector to not look beyond a certain superclass.
