Definitely a message or button here would be good, and needs to be LTS aware ...

There is already a notification for new releases - "just" need to

This isn't strictly true - it also covers general IDE patches.
NetBeans has always behaved like this.  But the rapid release schedule
does seem to have made it more confusing.

Best wishes,
