If you use the refactoring browser to remove it will warn you about
that situation. Maybe the normal remove should warn about subclasses
too, like the rm in unix does.

There is already a menu item, it is called 'show hierarchy'.

I guess the tools don't display these kind of references because then
you suddenly have two different kinds of objects as a result: methods
and classes.
