Ok,
so far it seems that there is a preference for the intellij approach.
Mind, in that case idempotence is not as important because we'd be doing
the formatting only once (it's a manual process
not integrated in the build), and then rely on checkstyle for verifying
violations.

This is also the path requiring the most work, checkstyle seems to be
mostly about best practice and less about formatting,
so not sure how much we can actually automate in terms of keeping the
formatting pristine, but at least some checks we
can use, like not using tabs and having proper indentation.

We'll have to spend some time figuring out a suitable configuration and
then see if we want to add extras on top of it
(e.g. constants all uppercase and the like) which likely will require
manual intervention on the code to actually pass.

Is it something that we can organize and share effort on?

Cheers
Andrea
