Custom Update Center settings not carried over
Apache NetBeans version
Apache NetBeans 28
What happened
When I upgraded from NB 26 to 28, a custom Update Center source that I had in 26 did not carry over to 28 even though I chose to import my settings.
Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component

How to reproduce
In NB 26, add a custom Update Center source. I used JRebel for Netbeans https://dl.zeroturnaround.com/jrebel/netbeans/updates.xml
Upgrade to NB 28, choosing to import settings. Note that the custom entry is missing.
Did this work correctly in an earlier version?

Are you willing to submit a pull request?
No
there may be valid reasons for this e.g so that only the official UCs are active pre-cluster activation. But this would be easy to migrate if it turns out to be ok, since its just a few properties files which can be automatically imported.
