Reproducibility: Happens every time

STEPS:
  * I have the following indentation settings for all the languages:
      Expand Tabs to Spaces: yes
      Number of Spaces per indent: 2
      Tab Size: 2
    inherited by all the languages (PHP and Javascript included)
  * I'm in a PHP page with this javascript code (please consider also the number of spaces included):
      function registerUser() {
        $.ajax({
          method: "POST",
          etc.
  * When I push the line "        $.ajax({" down with an [Enter] from the beginning of the line, the indentation
    is broken from 8 spaces to 4 spaces.
  * Same result in PHP code
  * Same result in NetBeans 8.1 

ACTUAL:
  the indentation of the existing line of code get broken to 4 spaces

EXPECTED:
  the indentation of the line of code should remain unchanged
