http://editorconfig.org is becoming somewhat of a standard?

Support for using .editorconfig configuration file for the formatting would be great.

I've never heard of it, but it seems okay. It doesn't look like the Java language support is mature, though. It also doesn't have its own formatting tooling. It requires an extra plugin from the Eclipse Marketplace to to apply the configuration file to the Eclipse project config, and then relies on the Eclipse formatter to do the formatting, from what I can tell.

Support for using .editorconfig configuration file for the formatting would be great.

It would probably be easier to just have a plugin that ran before this one, that took a .editorconfig file as input and placed an eclipse configuration file in target/, rather than bloat this plugin further by adding so many more dependencies and features.
