   > I am wondering if we should filter it out from the LAF list? I guess users 
could still use the flag to force it.
   
   Perhaps? Or otherwise advertise that we really recommend FlatLAF over the 
other ones.
   
   The main reason to keep the older LAFs around is that it's useful to have 
each of the basic Java LAFs available in the list for people who are developing 
Swing apps and would like to see what each one of them looks like in the 
context of the full IDE. It's also useful during NetBeans IDE development, to 
test Swing code changes with different LAFs to make sure the code does not make 
accidental assumptions about specific LAF implementation details.
   
   > I set -J-Djdk.gtk.version=2 for VisualVM to make it somewhat useable 
(fixes the toolbars at least).
   
   I think we used to have that setting as default in NetBeans, until 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5862 removed it. Maybe certain 
issues appeared to have been fixed in the JDK, but others were not.
