For Eclipse 3.4 at least you can do the following:

1) Go to Preferences -> Java -> Appearance -> Type Filters 2) Click Add, and enter java.lang.Object

Now in code assist, the methods inherited directly from java.lang.Object will dissapear

I'd recommend this approach. You can also tell eclipse which types of proposals to use.
