I'm not aware of the formatter being available this way. The compiler
appears to be used in Jasper as distributed with Tomcat 5.5, so it is at
least possible to use it this way.

Mainly because you haven't packaged it that way yet. Let's get back to
reality here! There's no point acting like this is some big IBM
conspiracy to keep the functionality under wraps. It's open source.
Understandably, the project developers want to spend their time making
Eclipse better... and I'm quite grateful for that. I think it's a wise
decision on their part.
