Using M8 on GTK. Accidentally performed Source->Format (java conventions) on a
large, previously unformatted class (WorkbenchWindow).

Two problems:

1. The operation, while taking a very long time, blocked the UI.

2. After it completed, I performed Edit->Undo and was surprised that the undo
operation took about the same length of time (?) Perhaps performance can be
improved under certain conditions if the the code formatter could consider
copying the text before the format starts and implement undo as a text replace
using the entire original text? (It is so slow to undo, I'm just guessing here
that it is doing the inverse of the format, operation by operation)
