Description
The Google style guide
http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/javascriptguide.xml#Code_formatting
requires indenting by two spaces for nested code, but by 4 spaces when continuing a statement or declaration on the next line.
This configuration doesn't seem to be possible.

Research direction
Start by locating the formatter's indentation configuration and its handling of nested versus continued statements; the issue provides no file or test entry point. Done means nested code can remain at two spaces while continued statements or declarations use four spaces through a configurable setting.
