You can write your own analysis using the SPI and fail eagerly. This will work only if users don't inject the Injector. We do this internally for singletons to ensure that only other singletons or unscoped things (or Providers) are injected into singletons. The APIs involved would be Binding.acceptTargetVisitor(BindingTargetVisitor), checking dependencies (often by casting to HasDependencies, for linked bindings getting the link, potentially implementing extension-specific BindingTargetVisitor subinterfaces), and keeping track of the path as you're recursing through dependencies. The starting point for visiting would be each binding in injector.getAllBindings().values(). (And you could keep track of what you've visited to short-circuit on later visits, to avoid redoing the same work.)
