After few weeks of thinking I believe the best way to solve the missing
`textmate.nbm` in IGV is to download it during build of my `enso4igv.nbm`
and distribute it next to it. However:
How do I download .nbm by Maven? I am trying to use maven-dependency-plugin
but whatever I try downloads the JAR file, not the NBM file. I'll continue
fighting, but if you know an official way to download an NBM (maybe with
NetBeans NBM plugin?), please help me out of my POJO misery.

PS: Following doesn't work...

<version>3.8.1</version>
