Code formatter

Sometimes I have a feeling that somebody forgets IDz is a development tool and needs to be able to handle non parsable code. Off course not as perfect as parsable code but a compromise.
I can't use the code formatter if the code is not parsable. It would be nice if I could mark up some lines and format those. Maybe it will only be a partial format but that would be better than nothing.

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. At this time, your request for enhancement is not currently aligned with our product strategy and vision and we have no plans to address your request in the near future. Again, thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
