An alternative is to switch to jdk-15 ("medium term support"), provided by Azul/Zulu.

makarius moved this task from TODO to Backlog on the isabelle-release board.

For improved portability (also for arm64-darwin) it might be better to exchange the app launcher as well, using a plain shell script instead of native executable.

How does this affect file associations, drag-and-drop onto the application etc.?
