HEAD, follow-up to bug 184693. The FilteredItemsSelectionDialog does not allow to render duplicates like in the old Open Type dialog. The default should be that labels should contain enough information (enclosing package, enclosing container, ...) to avoid ever showing two identical-looking items to the user. Open Type's additional menu item "Show Container for Duplicates" should only always add full labels in cases where partial labels would in principle be enough to distinguish items. Unfortunately, I see no way for us to implement this with current API. The problem is that we can only ask FilteredItemsSelectionDialog#isDuplicateElement(..), but we have no way to get our hand on the other duplicate elements to do the necessary comparisons (see TypeInfoViewer.TypeInfoLabelProvider#getText(last, current, next)) for the original implementation. As a workaround for now, I've enabled "Show Container for Duplicates" permanently and removed the action from the Open Type menu (bug 184693).
You can do it by implement getElementName(Object item). This method is using to mark elements as duplicate and during camelCase sorting in matchesRawNamePattern(Object item). It should resolve yours problem.
But as I said, we need to know the *other* duplicates. Otherwise we cannot decide if e.g. java.util.List needs to be rendered with the container, because we don't know whether it would be unique if rendered without.
Krzysztof left the team some time ago. I'm removing the target milestone.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
