For what it's worth, I agree with Pavel about this. It's pretty clear that
the ajc people, with their AspectJ designing hat on, have decided to
ignore the implements/extends distinction, and it would be best just to
follow that consistently. It's easy to explain, too: "'implements' and
'extends' are interchangeable in 'declare parents'".
