Very often, people use formatting to fix indentation, because everyone has different indentation settings, which leads to total chaos in tabs/spaces mixture.

However, formatter sometimes breaks hand-made formatting which fits the given code better - e.g. inline get/setters, space-aligned anonymous inner classes, etc.

My suggestion is:

Add a "Format indentation" which would _only_ reformat the leading spaces and tabs, taking the level of current structure depth into account.

E.g.:

     class Hello {
    public String getNote() {
 return note; }
     public void setNote( String note ) { this.note = note;
}
   }

would become
 
class Hello {
    public String getNote() {
        return note; }
    public void setNote( String note ) { this.note = note;
    }
}

and NOT

class Hello {

    public String getNote()
    {
        return note;
    }

    public void setNote( String note )
    {
        this.note = note;
    }
}

Thanks for considering.
