I do see the driver (missed it at first) but what it doesn't have is the samples setup like they are in Derby, and it isn't integrated into the Tools like JavaDB is today.
Even if those things were there I'd still very much like to see a download option so EVERYTHING gets installed in one step. It's kind of the reason why Glassfish is bundled.

I'm pretty sure NB6 comes with a MySQL, PostgreSQL and JDBC-ODBC Bridge
driver. The joy of Java is it doesn't matter which SQL database your
connecting to, all you're really using is JDBC.
Given that, there's no point in bundling it is there?
