----------------
After pondering a bit more, it seems like CodeProcessor is too generic: this is more something that runs analyses based on annotated tokens, so I'd call it TokenAnalyzer or something. That would also make it obvious to push some of the duplicated functionality from Formatter and Cleaner down (namely everything up to where we have generated the annotated tokens).

I'm still not completely convinced either way regarding inheritance vs. composition, but if we have a TokenAnalyzer, we'd also have a nice is-a relationship. While I generally agree to prefer composition, I also think we need to look out for where inheritance actually makes things clearer.
