Possible method to make "Easy Installer" more functional

So i noticed that the Easy Installer does not have a build for my device (SM_G900T / KLTE) however i can download a build that works without issue, fully functioning.

I saw these

https://community.e.foundation/t/easy-installer-issue/18219

https://doc.e.foundation/easy-installer#what-is-the-eos-easy-installer

and the first thing that came to mind to fix this issue. is to have all the builds linked via a json file in this sort of format

{
    [
        "SM_G900T": {
            "download" : "https://images.ecloud.global/dev/klte/e-0.11-p-2020082870302-dev-klte.zip",
            "sha256sum" : "e04dc16292ed84d83ad2a733de212b16385f4417631985501b81b761d8af2acd  e-0.11-p-2020082870302-dev-klte.zip",
            "md5" : "0eb6968905f6e3000e22378a635dfab1  e-0.11-p-2020082870302-dev-klte.zip"
        }
    ]
}

and have the installer fetch that json at launch, and grant the user the ability to choose whether to include unstable builds

In this json i used the latest build for my device as an example
