I guess I'm not putting in a PR to remove the slider or table now then! smile
   
   I actually chatted with han solo himself via foojay slack and we found some 
bugs in the current data. For example some STS releases were reported as MTS 
(19 EA for example, you see it in the screenshot, han said it should be fixed 
now). There might be also a new method soon `disco.getAllMajorVersions` taking 
a distribution as input parameter - which would make it significantly more 
useful than now since the result currently only applies to zulu.
   
   Thats also when i started to add defensive checks. For example to figure out 
what is EA, the code does not query if the package is EA, it simply checks if 
version > latest version. It also only uses LTS now, everything else is assumed 
to be STS without even asking. The advanced panel will still show the actual 
value, but this is not used for quick select - it only shows LTS and latest.
