Comment:

 Thanks for the ticket and welcome!

 At first glance, I'm not sure if this isn't expected behaviour. I can see
 a use case where you may want to only run the filter on one of the two
 calls. For example, to only affect the `nav_menu` item title.

 In both cases, the ID parameter belongs to an item in the `wp_posts` table
 so doing a `get_post_type( $ID )` call would allow developers to apply any
 filter to one or both.

 All that being said, did you want to write up a patch?
