Hello All,

I did a fair bit of googling before sending this query, do let me know if this has been answered before.

I'm working in an environment that is highly automated. My Jenkins instances are managed as docker containers and elements of JENKINS_HOME are managed via a volume mount. As part of this image volume mount, I'd like to o specify that Jenkins install the last available JDK for Sun/Oracle. Currently, it only appears that I am able to specify a specific JDK version.

Is there a way to do this currently that I am not seeing? If not, is this a feature of which the maintainers would be supportive? I would be interesting in providing the relevant issue and build a PR if so.
