Request #10164 has been rejected by Eschwartz [1]: And what if someone prefers the nodejs based version instead of the python version? They're both valid things for someone to want. I'd go so far as to say that people seeking to beautify their javascript files are more likely to have nodejs installed than they are to have python installed, so that could be one less large package to have installed.
