While this is great indeed I cannot use it until it properly figures out how to load maven reactor projects. Netbeans gets thoroughly confused unfortunately. I would love to move away from Eclipse but unfortunately it still is the only ide that does everything I need to...which is unfortunate because I like Intellij's refactoring, and netbeans out of the box awesomeness way more than Eclipse.

6.7 could have been really great, but it is not usable if you use maven and junit test driven development.
6.5 worked really well, right click on a test, run or debug test
6.7 has introduced some crazy stuff that completely breaks the core maven/junit test driven development use case. To even try to debug a test you have to select the test and then use Debug->Debug Test File from the MAIN MENU (yep, not a thing on the context menu), which then promptly fails to debug the test in a maven environment.
6.5 is perfect, 6.7 is a disaster!
