   ### Description
   
   For readability, you sometimes format code in a nicely aligned way, e.g. 
columnar for operations on a sequence of array elements.
   
   For instance
   ``` 
           return new Student(
                        java.lang.String.class.cast( components[ 0 ] ),
                        java.lang.String.class.cast( components[ 1 ] ),
                        java.lang.String.class.cast( components[ 2 ] ),
                     java.time.LocalDate.class.cast( components[ 3 ] )
           );
   ```
   This is hard work, even in this wiki editor I am currently using, for lack 
of a fixed sized font.
   Anyhow, if you could keep that formatting intact even with a reformat all 
over the code, that would be nice.
   
   The start and end tags could look like this: The first  to turn reformatting 
off.
   - `//!reformat-`
   -  `//!reformat+`
   
   ### Use case/motivation
   
   The readability of code is key.
   This would help
