The Python Eggs Manager will be useful to manage Python eggs from NetBeans IDE. It will support 'virtualenv' as well.
The widely used way to do this is using "easy_install", which the initial support will be using. Support for "pip" may be added. There will be option to customize the package index being used.
I have stopped working on this issue, as of now.
