Also, this is the first time I've heard about editorconfig, I haven't checked the netbeans plugin, but I imagine that event if the plugin worked it wouldn't achieve the desired results because the editorconfig standard seems to have too few properties that can be controlled compared to your tipical IDE's formatting options https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig/wiki/EditorConfig-Properties
It did however, give me an idea to implement UTF-8 / LF enforcement trough my CI https://ec4j.github.io/editorconfig-maven-plugin/ Though I wish the java ecosystem had something as mature as PHP-CS-Fixer -- Juan Algaba
