Not sure what's preventing you from setting up Intellij to do what you want, even without .editorconfig. I setup intellij editor format preferences to follow the formatting I setup with my build-based linter/formatter. I just change the IDE settings so that they match my formatter, use it as the project setting, and then commit the codestyle files in .idea folder so that it's always there when I import or open a project. Never have to touch it again, autoformat in the IDE works and is 100% compatible with my ktfmt, ktlint, checkstyle, spotless or whatever. Imports, order, line wraps, indentation, etc... it 'just works' for me.

Yes, it's a minor additional step at first, but it's like 15 minutes tops, and after the first time you do it, you simply copy the xml from project to project if you want to use the same settings.

What you are suggesting here is a lot of manual work. What I'm complaining about is that there is no sane/easy way to avoid having to do all of that and getting everybody on the team to do the exact same things.

This should be as simple as "import the project". Done. There should not be any extra steps. No settings fiddling. No magic files to copy. No plugin installations to intellij. Etc.
