I realise it would only work if the document is saved to disk of course. js-beautify has the option to read from STDIN as well, so can I do that, and have the output piped back in to the current document?

Yep, do it with STDIN/STDOUT. Here is a text filter I've got installed:

```
#!/bin/sh

## https://github.com/einars/js-beautify
## https://www.npmjs.org/package/js-beautify

# js-beautify -f - --good-stuff
/usr/local/bin/js-beautify --e4x   -f -
```

Using STDIN/STDOUT means you also process the __selected__ text, rather than processing the whole file.
