Research direction
Start at the Java formatter entry point and reproduce the behavior with org.eclipse.jdt.core.formatter.continuation_indentation set to 1. Trace where that setting is read and where the indentation value becomes fixed at 2. Done means the configured property value is respected instead of always using 2.
