I think Netbeans is really good...but since Java/Swing has lagged so far behind when it comes to the desktop application feature support I believe its a lost cause with the designer and such. I have begged so many times for inclusion of the most simple widgets that are present in all other widget libraries, but the devs insists that its not needed.
My experience is that many central Java developers oppose ANY significant changes to the class library or language, and so it looses ground to other languages, including C#.NET. For some reason, every addition I would want for the language or the class library (lets face it; the class library are a mess) are already suggested a lot of times by a lot of different people with a lot of votes in their bugzilla rfe, and they are all "closed, will not be fixed". Community my ass...
