   > Why not remove the property from the POM? (override the value from a 
parent pom?)
   
   Not sure if I understand what you're asking, but if it is: why don't you 
remove the property from the POM? Then, yes, it doesn't make sense to specify 
`@@DEFAULT@@` as the value, but if NetBeans writes it to the POM, it should at 
least do so without typos. And ideally it shouldn't write it to the POM at all, 
but that's an issue of its own
   
   > How is this story about backwards compatibility?
   
   Imho this is a negligible issue. At worst, people will get an `Unresolved 
project problem` saying `No such Java Platform: @@DEFAU:T@@`, upon which 
they'll select a Java Platform of their choosing in the settings and that's it. 
But I doubt this will impact many users at all.
