Eclipse XML Formatter broken

When I want to format my pom.xml the following happens:

From

<dependency>
    <groupId>junit</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
    <version>4.10</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

To

        <dependency>

            <groupId>
junit
            </groupId>

            <artifactId>
junit
            </artifactId>

            <version>
4.10
            </version>

            <scope>
test
            </scope>
        </dependency>

I've tried to restore default settings wherever the XML Editor of Eclipse is involved, although I haven't changed anything knowingly. Any idea where to set this straight?

Go to Window > Preferences then select from the left navigation General > Editors > File Association, choose the file type .xml and in the window below select the XML editor and click on Default.
