Suggestion: typescript.format.rememberManuallyFormattedCode

[alialtun14]

Most of the time, it's needed to format some part of code manually by developers to align the code vertically.

For example: in the following code that is formatted by typescript formatter,

constructor (public http: Http, public chd: ChangeDetectorRef) {
	this.ctx.customer_exp = { sel: { "new0.customer": "id" } };
	this.ctx.perso_exp = { sel: { "new0.perso": "id" } };
	this.ctx.car_exp = { sel: { "new0.car": "id" } };
}

I changed format of some part to improve readability of the formatted code, After changing the code is like this

constructor (public http: Http, public chd: ChangeDetectorRef) {
    this.ctx.customer_exp = {sel: { "new0.customer": "id" }};
    this.ctx.perso_exp    = {sel: { "new0.perso"   : "id" }};
    this.ctx.car_exp      = {sel: { "new0.car"     : "id" }};
}

It would be nice, typescript formatter remember code that manually formatted part and protect them.

According to my opinion if this is possible, no longer needed to align colons automatically.

In connection with this property, following value can be added to settings file.

typescript.format.rememberManuallyFormattedCodePart = true;

Otherwise to find a common solution that will be a solution for everyone is very difficult.

The formatter is stateless. so remembering what the user formatted, and does not want to change, and what should be changed is not a feasible task.
