+1

Making sure this option isn't broken, and hopefully has a better UI,
is why I think we should punt this forward to NB 13.

I assume we can at least ship nb-javac while still allowing for it to
be disabled in the plugin manager?  However, I'm currently running NB
12.5 with nb-javac installed, and it shows in Plugins as not
installed.  So there's something awry there already!

I'm also hoping if/when we do include nb-javac by default, it will
never again be a cause of release delays! :-)

Best wishes,

Neil
