It does nothing with these it seems. It leaves them as they were in the source code.
If they had line breaks after the Comma, it won't remove them. Not even empty lines.

Below are two examples formatted with Netbeans, your simple object and
the wiki example.

SimpleObj={
    "x" : 1,
    "y": 2
};

WikiExample={
    "Herausgeber": "Xema",
    "Nummer": "1234-5678-9012-3456",
    "Deckung": 2e+6,
    "Währung": "EURO",
    "Inhaber": {
        "Name": "Mustermann",
        "Vorname": "Max",
        "männlich": true,
        "Hobbys": [ "Reiten", "Golfen", "Lesen"],
        "Alter": 42
    }
};

It's not that I would say Netbeans is the reference, but what it does
looks quite readable to me.
Not sure if not-formatting simple arrays is a good idea though.

Thank you.
