I think I had in my mind when I wrote, both.  If Gradle can generate
project files for Eclipse and IntelliJIDEA, then there is a case for
NetBeans being included.  Also Code::Blocks given the push towards C and
C++ capability in Gradle.

Conversely NetBeans "Just Works" given a Maven POM, and perhaps it
should be able to "Just Work" given a build.gradle?

Despite having ditched Groovy as a supported language, NetBeans is still
quite popular in the Java community, so deserves some Gradle support?
