Description
Hello everyone,
I am using Eclipse 23-12 (4.30.0) version and it seems that I can't hide anymore the Object and Enum default methods from code completion.
Up to now, I got it working by using the Type Filters preferences, adding the java.lang.Object and java.lang.Enum* filter names. It was working brilliantly, only showing the new methods I was adding in each class and enum.
But with the last couple updates this doesn't seem to work. I have included photos to have a visualization aspect as well.
Can you enlighten me?
Thank you

Research direction
Start by reproducing the code-completion behavior in Eclipse 23-12 (4.30.0) with java.lang.Object and java.lang.Enum* configured in Type Filters. Compare completion results with earlier Eclipse updates and determine whether the filters are being ignored; done means Object and Enum methods can again be hidden while class-specific methods remain visible.
