   To my knowledge Connector/J is distributed under GPLv2-only, so we can't 
ship it. I tested with my local version and when I try to create a new mysql 
connection, I'm prompted to point NetBeans to the JAR, so that it can be used.
   
   The JAR itself was added to the downloads to make unittests possible 
(https://github.com/apache/netbeans/commit/aec700e82092af3851fd9d8883eadfcd942ee035)
 and was marked to be `compile-time`:
