After I found the Beans/desginTime problem, I was able to look if other had this problem. And there were some.

http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=139304
http://kenai.com/nonav/projects/netbeans-opengl-pack/forums/forum/topics/2025-Problem-closing-the-OpenGL-Capabilities-Viewer-

So I'm not sure if this is a bug or just two points of view.

Additionally the Beans/desginTime problem is not connected to my original resizing problem of the JCanvas3D inside the a Netbeans Platform Application with different TopComponents.

A simple example is what happens when the GLCanvas is used inside Netbeans is the following where Beans/desginTime is set true:
