I absolutely do not consider this an issue that should hold up the release. However, it is in my opinion a bug that needs to be addressed. A feature of NetBeans has been diminished and needs to be addressed at least for 9.01.

I can reproduce it though. I'm sure you're aware that we've now voted on the release and we're pretty close to releasing it, so it's certainly not going to be fixed in time for 9.0 at this stage. Not sure how it's going to be worked out to fix this, since again no one has touched the Maven code AFAIK. Possibly that functionality is provided by some plugin that isn't part of Java SE, i.e., note again that Apache NetBeans (incubating) 9.0 is focused on 9.0 only. If you add the 8.2 update center (as explained here https://blogs.apache.org/netbeans/entry/what-s-happened-to-my) you might find that when you install the Java EE related plugins, that functionality you're missing will be added.
