Please leave issues open to submitting bugs or request to the groovy-android-gradle-plugin. This question would be better asked on forms such as stack overflow.

But to answer the question.... The Groovy compiler itself does not offer any means to allow an annotation processor to run on groovy source code. There is an issue for this in the Groovy JIRA, but this would be a lot of work, for a small gain. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-3361 for the issue. So unless Netbeans offers something unknown to me it should not be possible at the moment
