I suspect that the ACL editor simply looks for ACEs with INHERITED_ACE
flag set.

I'm not sure how it would show an object that only inherits a subset
of the inheritable ACEs from its parent, but this situation seems to
be impossible to create using the editor.

No inherited ACEs == checkbox is unchecked. Which is how it seems to work.
