No-one here is working on it. Were you thinking of doing so?

It does sound interesting, we have imagined having providers for various 
Java relationships, such as "implements", but "annotates" seems like a 
more useful one.

Given that there is only one provider at the moment, there isn't much 
support for managing multiple providers and switching between them (or 
allowing multiple providers to be active at the same time), but this would 
be straightforward to add (and probably needs a second provider to drive 
it).
