01 content assist for overloaded methods

When invoking content assist, the elements of the list should take the number of arguments into account. Being a DSL, the jOOQ (http://www.jooq.org) API heavily overloads some keywords for convenience. In the attached screenshot "01 content assist for overloaded methods", you can see that there are lots of "row" methods, like:

row(Object...)
row(Field<?>...)
row(Collection<?>)
row(Field<T1>)
row(T1)
row(Field<T1>, Field<T2>)
row(T1, T2)

Eclipse, however, thinks that the overload with 10 arguments is the most relevant:

row(Field<T1>, Field<T2>, Field<T3>, ..., Field<T10>)

The ordering could certainly be made a bit smarter.

I just realised that this is a duplicate of the very old issue 76796: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=76796
