That's my personal "formatting guidelines" for years now. For UIs like HTML, FTL, XML. Even for codes (PHP, Perl, C/C++, Lisp, etc), if I wasn't working in a team that followed other space-indentation policies.

About the 4-space Java indentation, I think it's not too big. Always good to force programmers to UN-NEST their codes (eg, straighten out deeply nested 'if' conditional blocks).

The problem is with ftl files. Using 4 space indentation with nested HTML elements within nested freemarker conditionals adds up to 30 to 40 character indentations. Can't we accept two space indentation for ftl files?
