If you want to re-introduce the Netbeans IDE, please do! Use the current source package, prepare your work, find a sponsor and upload it to Debian. However the Java team will not remove a source package from Debian just "for consistency". We don't rename source packages just to re-introduce them later under a different name, only to produce the same binary package as the current package again. This would be completely nonsensical and a whole lot of make-work for all involved parties, mostly the ftp-team and the Java team itself.
