From the Problems view, I went to the Filters view and created a new
filter called "Project Errors", currently it has the same definition as
the Default filter, i.e. On any element in the same Project, Where
severity is Error or Warning and Show items of All types.
Now, if I keep both the Default and Project Errors filters active
(checked) I see a certain numbers of errors and warnings. If I keep only
the Default filter active, I see the same set.
But if I deactivate Default and keep only Project Errors active, I see
*no* errors or warnings. That is, I am not able to get my custom filters
to work.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

I could not reproduce the behaviour that you describe. Default or custom,
it is the same filter code eventually, the default filter is no different
from a custom filter. If you can actually reproduce this behaviour on
your system, please file a bug indicating the steps to do so.
