[TYPO3-english] Auto-formatting HTML in RTE in "Toggle HTML Source" view to make it readable

[Sergii Khomenko]

Erik, thanks for you input.

I agree, you can tune rte to perfection, but if it was an ideal world and no
cases for html face-to-face meetings :)
This is something really nice to have.

Is there a wishlist for htmlarea that we could add this nice to have
feature?
