I was able to resolve in an easier but more limited way by just providing explicitly to the AnnotationConfiguration the implementation class (MyWebApplicationInitializerImpl in this example) that I want to be loaded like this:

webAppContext.setConfigurations(new Configuration[] {
    new WebXmlConfiguration(),
    new AnnotationConfiguration() {
        @Override
        public void preConfigure(WebAppContext context) throws Exception {
            MultiMap map = new MultiMap();
            map.add(WebApplicationInitializer.class.getName(), MyWebApplicationInitializerImpl.class.getName());
            context.setAttribute(CLASS_INHERITANCE_MAP, map);
            _classInheritanceHandler = new ClassInheritanceHandler(map);
        }
    }
});
