Description

Let's have the following JavaDoc for a class:

/**
  * Description.
  * <p>
  * <pre>
  * sample code
  * </pre>
  */

After formatting the source with Alt-Shift-F, the <pre> tag become invalid:

/**
  * Description.
  * <p>
  * <
  * pre>
  * sample code
  * </pre>
  */

Not only <pre> is no longer recognized tag, but subsequent formatting with Alt-Shift-F breaks indentation in the sample code.
