Interesting idea and it would certainly help to alleviate the "how many editors do we need to provide code style config for" problem, but it looks rather limited in scope at the moment (for instance it doesn't even try to address "brace on current line or line of its own", let alone more odd things like GNU coding style brace indent).

It's only really targeting text-editor-level settings, things like encoding, EOLs, and "what characters does the tab key emit". It doesn't attempt to solve every formatting/linting/style issue, that would make the editor plugins really hard to keep compatible.
