...half a year later: there is a hacky way to achieve this: we can
process *all* the classes trying to figure out what benchmarks are
actually needed. I committed the new implementation here:
  http://hg.openjdk.java.net/code-tools/jmh/rev/6c1661cc20e8

See the example:
 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/code-tools/jmh/file/tip/jmh-samples/src/main/java/org/openjdk/jmh/samples/JMHSample_24_Inheritance.java

More extensive testing would be appreciated!
