Because otherwise the mentioned example looks terrible if viewed with a 
different spaces-to-tabs setting. Assume, that the code is generated with 4 
spaces per tab. Than IDEA (and each other tabs-stupid editor) would 
generate tabs like this:

|-->private int test(String value1,
|-->|-->|-->|-->|-->.String value2) {
|-->|-->return getValue(value1,
|-->|-->|-->|-->|-->|-->value2);
|-->}

View this with 8 spaces per tab:

|------>private int test(String value1,
|------>|------>|------>|------>|------>.String value2) {
|------>|------>return getValue(value1,
|------>|------>|------>|------>|------>|------>value2);
|------>}

What do you think, does this looks good?
