I just found the way to get it done, using an eclipse extension:

<plugin>

   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.workbench.texteditor.hyperlinkDetectors">
      <hyperlinkDetector
            activate="true"
            class="testproject.ShouldAnnotationDetector"
            id="testProject.shouldAnnotationDetector"
            name="name"
            targetId="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaCode">
      </hyperlinkDetector>
   </extension>

</plugin>

where testproject.ShouldAnnotationDetector should extend testproject.ShouldAnnotationDetector
