+                There are some platform installers which does not use the local disk as source of the java platform,
+                for example they download the java platform from the web. Such installers cannot use the current
+                PlatformInstall which is file oriented. The CustomPlatformInstall allows to platform install
+                provider to implement its own way of installing the new platform. The PlatformInstall is still supported.
+                If the module provides the PlatformInstall in the global lookup, the java platform module does the
+                java platform chooser for it, the behavior is not changed. If the module provides the CustomPlatformInstall
+                in the global lookup, it has to do the platform selection by itself.
