I have been playing around with qmlls and its document format requests. Here are some unexpected results I encountered.

1. After typing out a simple but valid qml file, it is marked as invalid and formatting fails. Invoking qmlformat directly works as expected. See New.{mp4,qml}
2. Formatting removes the escape character in the key string of a key-value pair of an object. See Escape.{mp4,qml}
3. Some requests cause an assertion failure and then never finish unless interrupted by the user. See Infinite.{mp4,qml}
4. Formatting is performed on the last valid state of the document leading to some spooky behavior such as adding additional braces or bringing deleted code back. For some reason, in the example code, the presence of the comment at the end of the line also has an importance in triggering the issue. See Spooky.{mp4,qml}
