The can be multiple formatters installed per file, this often happens for JS/TS files after installing prettier. In such cases one formatter must be picked as default. Prompting for that is pretty aggressive when explicitly invoking format (modal dialog) but the conflict UI is very subtle when formatting automatically, e.g on save. In such flows we cannot show a modal and use a status bar message and silent notification instead. This isn't working so well (see #146544 and related) the issue is about using the language status item to show format conflicts
