Add new filter "product type" to section where we can add products to a category

[Eddcapone]

Description (*)

Magento 2.4
I just added a new category and now I have to add products to it.
The products I need to add to the category, are configurable products and start with the name "Spannrahmen".

Problem: There are also thousands of simple products starting with "Spannrahmen", and so I can't find the configurable product fast enough, and it is extremly laborious task, because of all the unecessary data showing to me.

Expected behavior (*)

In a category page should be a filter for product type. If I could sort for product type, then it would be much easier, because then only the configurable products are showing.

Benefits

It would make the work much faster.

Additional information

It should be a must have for Enterprise...
