Doesn't work so well when one uses a code format where opening braces of a block begin on a new line: For such formats the previous line should also be sticky to provide sufficient context.

What is more, the horizontal indentation doesn't seem to align perfectly when using tabs for indentation.

I think this is the same issue as reported in https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.ui/issues/1950.
