Build ID: I20070621-1340

Steps To Reproduce:
There are times when a developer would prefer to have to Java source format engine exclude an area of the code. For instance, there may be a very complex constructor that is difficult to understand without line breaks in strategic places. I would like to request to have a feature added that flags a block as "excluded" from formatting. This would be somewhat similar to the PRE HTML tag.

More information:
Obviously this feature would have to be implemented using Java comments.  Perhaps something like:

/* BEGIN PRE */
new Entity(
  0,
  "name",
  "field1",
  "field2",
  null, null, null // blank collections
);
/* END PRE */
