Object types are grouped under the 'filter types' listed below, to bring the list of options in the UI (e.g. when filtering by object type) down to a manageable number.
The 'T numbers' in the descriptions relate to the type ids (see object types table). Each type has a reference to the filter group to which it belongs (as well as to its overall object class).
