A really simple one - there is noone wanting to spend time on it. Back in the 
days we shared a lot of work with netbeans maintainers to keep the Java stack 
working. Maintaining an IDE is time consuming as they have bigger dependencies 
on underlying infrastructure to make it easier for developers. So when one 
chooses to do that he/she has to care about the whole stack not just about it's 
package.
