There is only one significant reason the version 1.9 was tested together with
the NetBeans 6.7.1.

You can discuss inclusion of the latest version to the NetBeans here: 
mailto:nbusers at netbeans.org
mailto:users at codecoverage.netbeans.org

I'm sure if the new features of the Cobertura will be valuable for community
then the latest version will be used by the NetBeans and the version, of
course, will be included in Fedora. Note, we are not far from the NetBeans 6.8.

AFAIU the main point to use "summaryXml" is based on existence of a large
project under test. There are many users of the NetBeans who has working on
very large projects. You can find support from their side in voting against RFE
filed  here: http://www.netbeans.org/issues
