Filters offered in the dialog

The dialog "Debug/Run Configurations" offers multiple filters for launch configurations. All of these filters are also applied to the dropdown menu of the Debug/Run button, when they are enabled, but not the filter "Apply Window Working Set(s)". This is an inconsistency and limits the usability of working sets.

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. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. 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.

This bug is still as relevant as before. The dropdown menus of the Debug and Run buttons are still not filtered by the Window Working Sets even though "Apply Window Working Set(s)" is enabled. Other filters, e.g. "Filter Closed Projects", are applied however. This is especially problematic when you have favorites from multiple projects and they are all shown, even though the other projects are hidden by working sets, leading to a very long, unfocused, list.
