I've noticed that my Maven-based platform app pulls in stuff that I do not know why is there.

I've done some testing by letting the IDE create two out-of-the-box projects for me and them comparing them. One is Ant-based (New Project --> NetBeans Modules --> NetBeans Platform Application) and the other is Maven-based (New Project --> Maven --> NetBeans Application).

I've then let the IDE create a ZIP distribution on both projects and then comparing the ZIPs.
All tests done on NB IDE 8.2 and using NB 8.2 platform deps. I haven't touched the generated projects.

The Maven-based application contains two cluster directories that the Ant-based doesn't have:

extra/
this contains net-java-html-boot-script.jar and net-java-html-sound.jar
java/
this contains org-netbeans-modules-junitlib.jar

Why? If the Ant-based app doesn't need these then neither should the Maven-based ditto.
