Description Tomasz Slota 2007-10-11 21:52:29 UTC 
Currently formatting reindents comments to the same level. We should decide on one the following strategies: 

- not to touch the comments content at all (5.5 behavior)
- format them relatively (move the whole block, preserve indentation within block)
Comment 1 Jindrich Sedek 2007-10-12 09:32:59 UTC 
I would propose your second variant. To indent whole block of code and to prevent it's content. The same behavior 
should be also for preformated text (<pre>), scripts and maybe also for styles.
Comment 2 Tomasz Slota 2007-11-03 23:42:41 UTC 
in the current build formatting comments it is back to the 5.5 behavior. Changing issue type to enhancement
Comment 3 David Konecny 2009-02-09 18:53:19 UTC 
I agree with #2. But only for comments: <pre> must be preserved as is; <style> and <script> content is formatted by CSS
and Javascript formatters.
Comment 4 Martin Balin 2016-07-07 08:56:43 UTC 
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
