Review comment:
       By doing this default container image without the scala version would 
let the problem exist I intended to solve. Actually the version should "flip 
flop" with the scala it was built against, just not in the documentation.
   
   So I thought of a different way to stabilized the version just for the 
documentation. It is a bit onorthodox so I'm curious to hear what you think of 
this direction.
   
   The alternative direction I had in mind would be extending the ConfigOption 
with something like "defaultValueForDocumentation".
