VW uses a separate project type in NetBeans 5.5. This approach was used to make the integration possible in limitted timeframe with minimal impact on NetBeans 5.5. In NetBeans 6.0 we will use web frameworks API and visual web pages will not require a separate project type. There will be a Visual JSF Web framework (VWF) which will be an extension of the JSF framework. VWF will add its own sample pages to the project, add the libraries needed for visual web development, etc.
It is done in 6.0M8.
