Michael,

This JEP is not related to jpackage. It covers JDK packaging, not Java 
applications packaging.

Are there any concerns for how the JDK  resolves different JDK’s for the same jdk version. Currently on OS/X I believe it determines somehow the latest one and uses that. So if you want to use a specific JDK you have to ensure it is the latest one for that version.
