Ensuring reformat code in jsp page does not create whitespace

This has been a problem for a long time in Idea, when you reformat jsp pages, it will create whitespace by moving around the start and end code blocks.

For instance, if you have:

<%@ page import=" java.net.URL, java.util.ArrayList, java.util.List, java.io.IOException"
%><%@ include file="_global.jspf" %><%
my other code here...
%>

When you reformat, it will change to:

<%@ page import=" java.net.URL, java.util.ArrayList, java.util.List, java.io.IOException"%>
<%@ include file="_global.jspf" %>
<%
my other code here...
%>

Which causes problems when you don't want to output spaces.

Is there any way to force Idea not to create whitespace when reformatting jsp's?
