Frankly, I wonder if there's a chance to allow some "good" uses, like "X with Apache NetBeans N" or a "Bundle of X and Apache NetBeans N", provided some basic conditions are met, like: -the NetBeans is an officially released unmodified version -it is clear which part is Apache NetBeans and which not.
(And I admit the current Payara distribution probably does not fulfil these conditions.) It is not quite clear to me if the policy prohibits this - i.e. this would be distributing an official release of NetBeans, just packed together with something else. Not any kind of a "modified" version. I am worried that if nothing like that is allowed, there will never be a bundle of a JDK with "NetBeans" (as Apache cannot do it and others could not as well). And "A bundle of a well-known programming platform and a well-known IDE" does not look very appealing.
