Well,
In Gradle you need to add the '--enable-preview' jvm arg to multiple
places in Gradle (compiler, test runner, and the Java Exec itself). The
most elegant way doing that is adding a plugin to the Gradle project
which takes care of the internals.
The plugin can be a public one (I'd probably go that way) or just can
leave in our repo next to those plugins which makes our run/test single
actions possible by extending the Gradle build process (Gradle Project
Properties > Build > Compile > Augmented Build Execution)
So I guess it could be a feature under Augmented build, that we could
add "enable-preview" and merely alter Gradle execution. The real
drawback of altering the build that the experience from building the
project from the IDE would be different than from the command line. (So
some link with details shall be put in the IDE to a Wiki page.)
So in summary:
* There is no perfect solution for this.
* Hint and change several lines in a gradle file is not a real option
* Put the logic as a Gradle Plugin is preferred
* We have a way to inject that plugin into a Gradle build
* The users needs to be properly informed what exactly happens under
the hood.

Not sure either, but if there’s no way (Laszlo might be able to advise
here) to set “enable-preview” on project level, then global (at least as a
fallback) would seem to be the only way to go.

Maybe read “enable-preview” as a fallback in netbeans.conf? I.e., if not
set anywhere else, check in netbeans.conf for -J-Denable-preview and, if
present, apply to all Java projects, which would include Gradle projects?
If you really wanted it as a global property (not sure!), maybe
somewhere in build.properties as a key related to the chosen Java
platform? eg. platforms.JDK_12.enable-preview=true
Best wishes,
