Code Formatting Transformations Hooks about text-document HOT 4 CLOSED

While I really like the idea in theory, in practise it basically forces everyone to use Atom, lest they suffer ill-formatted code. Any thoughts on this?

Also, please bear in mind that Atom isn't the only consumer of atom/text-buffer and probably won't be the only consumer of the new atom/text-document when it is ready.

@thomasjo the idea wasn't to have the storage format be "utter crap" and the display format to be "amazingly pristine code". The idea is that different people have different preferences. The team might like spaces surrounding equals signs in default arguments and I might like the compressed look. This way I can read the code in the way that I prefer, but it will be formatted according to the team's standards when written to disk.

@secrettriangle I don't believe hooks being in place for additional tools to be plugged in is any risk to third-party use of the text-document library. I suspect that this kind of thing would logically fit in to the already-existing TransformLayer, so long as it is performant enough.
