Description

When I try to format JS code which looks like this:

var test = {foo: [{bar: 3}]};var test2 = {foo: [{bar: 3}]};var test3 = {foo: {bar: [4]}};

It will format it like this:

var test = {foo: [{bar: 3}]};
var test2 = {foo: [{bar: 3}]};
var test3 = {foo: {bar: [4]}};

But expected behavior is a well formatted/beautified JS code, which should look like this:

var test = {
    foo: [
        {
            bar: 3
        }
    ]
};

var test2 = {
    foo: [{
        bar: 3
    }]
};

var test3 = {
    foo: {
        bar: [4]
    }
};

Based on the formatting rules.
