taming IntelliJ on JavaDoc

IntelliJ trashes my JavaDoc by reflowing comments that contains HTML
tags.

e.g.

Are the following quirks of the calendar considered in this code?<br>
<dl
* compact> <dt>yes</dt> <dd>1900 is not a leap year (mod 100).</dd>
* <dt>yes</dt> <dd>2000 is a leap year (mod 400).</dd> <dt>yes</dt>
<dd>The 10
* missing days in 1582 October. (Pope Gregory's correction) 1582 Oct
5 to 1582
* Oct 14 never happened.</dd> <dt>partly</dt> <dd>Britain and its
territories
* (including the USA and Canada) adopted the Gregorian correction in
1752. By
* then, 11 days had to be dropped. 1752 September 3 to 1752 September
13 never
* happened. However, you can modify constants in BigDate to use the
British
*

That used to read:

It is even more scrambled if there are blank lines.

Is there a way to get it to stop doing that or to reformat the HTML
much like an HTML editor would?
