There are users who want to use NetBeans but don't want to install openjdk.
(you can find an example here: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netbeans/+bug/258844)
They already have sun-java6-jdk installed and expect NetBeans to work on 
it.
That is why NetBeans needs a fork of the code included into openjdk.
