That's a really interesting idea! Obviously other people can already build bundled installers, but as an Apache project we can't do so directly. But we should be OK with an installer that can do this as an optional step on the user side. Now if that (or related code) could also create bundles itself, that sounds really useful. If it could keep intact a reproducible and/or Apache-signed NetBeans binary in the process, with some verification, maybe that is at least one good criteria for allowing bundles to carry the Apache NetBeans + ... name?
