No, this is Java/JDT specific.

Mickael, you already asked the exact

Yes, it was https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=481323, and the first answer was that "not all customers have code recommenders
installed"; which, if we speak about the Eclipse IDE deliveries, seemed
to be a wrong answer. That's why I found interesting to ask again, and
get some other answers.

One is emphasizing the matching characters
in the proposal list. This is a generic feature that also applies to non-JDT
and can be leveraged e.g. by CDT. Nothing that Code Recommenders provides
at that level.
Great then! I wasn't aware of that, and indeed it's a
change that provides a high value for many projects and use-cases.

The second thing is substring matching.
The main trigger was Marcel Bruch, owner of Code Recommenders, which encouraged
us to do this, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=350000#c4:
Similarly to above, is this implementation generic to
apply to other language tools?
