When using the new Project Structure dialog, I see suggestions to update my libraries,
but as it turns out, most of those new versions are actually alpha and beta versions.
I don't think the IDE should encourage any developer to use libraries that are not stable.

At least make an option where we can select do we want to be notified only about stable releases only
or any releases.

Android Studio 3.4
Build #AI-183.5429.30.34.5452501, built on April 10, 2019
JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-1343-b01 amd64
JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o
Windows 10 10.0

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create new project
2. AppCompat 1.0 is automatically added as an dependency
3. PSD suggests updating to 1.1.0-alpha4

Expected: No suggestions as 1.0 is the latest stable release.

I totally agree, it's really misleading. Same is for "in editor" hints within Gradle files.
