The evolution https://bugs.eclipse.org/27079 now lets us disable formatter for selected parts of the code. 

But currently, the logic is the following: 
* at the beginning of the file, the formatter is enabled
* then it can be disabled/reenabled when encountering Off/On tags.

To sum up, the current principle is that the main part of the file has to be formatted, and to be disabled selectively.

This can be a problem, when in the contrary you mainly want not to format the file, and only selected parts have to be formatted.

There's currently one workaround: put a Off tag at the beginning of the file, and a On tag at the beginning of the "to be formatted" parts. 

But I feel it would be a bit more natural if one could define the default formatting behaviour (format, or no), and then define the part that have to be formatted.

Cheers.
