When opening Netbeans via Docky you click the launcher and it opens a separate program in the Docky menu.

To fix this we need to add :

StartupWMClass=java-lang-Thread

to the netbeans.desktop file.

This has fixed the issue on my Docky instance running Ubuntu 10.04 ( Lucid )

It's not a must have but would be a welcome addition so as not to have to hack again.
