mbien opened a new issue, #6135: URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/6135
### Body NB suggesting config imports from (very) old versions keeps causing new, seemingly unrelated issues. We tried to patch things up before (e.g #4838) and keep patching things (#6094) still but it is overall a fairly risky operation to let users import settings as fragile as the mechanism is. I suggest to agree to a number, lets say 3 versions from `current` as sliding window and only let NB suggest imports of those versions. The explicit import (via the buttons in the options) should probably still allow everything but maybe have a warning on it. ### Committer - [X] I acknowledge that I am a maintainer/committer in the Apache NetBeans project. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
