Well I'm not so sure this is an either/or situation. The people who
actually do the integration may not be those who would otherwise develop
IDE functionality. In other words, it could be developers from MySQL
who do the integration rather than the other way around.
That said, of far greater importance for me would be to have the support
of free-form projects and free-form web projects in particular. That
however is likely to be a more challenging and time-consuming task than
MySQL integration.

+1, we don't even use the bundled Tomcat and GlassFish, although we're
running both on our servers. There's no point in including databases
that people probably have installed already. One lightweight,
embeddable one like Derby (suitable for the sample programs) I can see,
but let's don't have the kitchen sink.
