Description
I have many projects in my workspace. Most of the projects are multi-level aggregated projects imported from Maven.
For as long as I can remember (many years) I have been able to select "Project > Clean..." to clean the current project and rebuild. If "Clean all projects" is checked, then all projects are immediately selected upon opening the dialog. Otherwise, the currently selected project is/are selected.
In other words, if I have `FooBar.java` open in the editor, the `foo-project` is automatically selected. If I select `foo-project` and `bar-project` in the Project Explorer, then "Project > Clean..." will bring up a dialog with `foo-project` and `bar-project` already selected.
However **as of Eclipse 2023-09, no matter what I do, the "Clean" dialog that appears for "Project > Clean..." will _never_ have any projects selected for cleaning**. It doesn't matter what files I have open in the editor, nor what projects I have selected in Project Explorer. Instead, I have to search and manually select the specific projects I wanted. This is more onerous than it sounds, because although I may have a large project selected with many subprojects, the "Clean" dialog ignores project hierarchy and lists all possible projects in a flattened, alphabetized list.
I'm using Windows 10 with Eclipse EE 2023-09 and OpenJDK 17.
