Java Code Formatter missing option i'd like to have [message #1827115]

  void foo2()
  {
    if (true)
    {
      return;
    }
    else
      if (false)
      {
        return;
      }
  }

I would like this code to not move "if" after "else" to the right, but have "if" with same indentation as above "else", keeping the "if" on the next line. There is no option in the formatter for this.

I am interested in adding this option to the default formatter, but would need guidance on where to start.

Thanks.

Ok, so i've found the code and made all the necessary changes, ui included, which are working fine in my current release 4.15.
Now, i would like to commit these changes to trunk. Does anyone have a guide/comment on how to do this?

Thanks.
