I don't think it'd be a good idea to release a hypothetical GNOME IDE that was not well-integrated with the rest of the GNOME desktop.
Netbeans defaults to the (slightly buggy) Gtk+ L&F on Linux. Personally I just change the L&F parameter to Nimbus and IMHO that looks pretty nice. The important point is that it is a mature (and fully open) IDE.
Oh really -- didn't know that. But I've watched my friend use Netbeans on GNOME just a couple months ago, and the menus, file choosers etc. look distinctly 1990s Java-esque, nothing at all like other GTK+ apps. I guess he could have changed the look and feel settings, but I doubt it....
