For example it turns this

const REGEXP_WHOLE =
    // [1] Return value
    `^\s*` + REGEXP_TYPE +
    // 3+1 = [4] Function name
    `(gl\w+)\s*` +
    // [5] Argument list
    `\((` + REGEXP_ARG_LIST + `)\)\s*$`

// ...

returnType  := submatches[1]
funcName    := submatches[4]
argList     := submatches[5]

into

const REGEXP_WHOLE =
// [1] Return value
`^\s*` + REGEXP_TYPE +
    // 3+1 = [4] Function name
    `(gl\w+)\s*` +
    // [5] Argument list
    `\((` + REGEXP_ARG_LIST + `)\)\s*$`

// ...

returnType := submatches[1]
funcName := submatches[4]
argList := submatches[5]

Especially first case is annoying. Is it at least a way to locally disable it with comments like in other similar tools i.e. like that?

// gofmt off
blablabla
// gofmt on

No, there's no such mechanism.

You'll have to find another way to reformat your code to make both gofmt and yourself happy.

As an aside, NAMES_LIKE_THIS should be NamesLikeThis or namesLikeThis in Go. See https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#mixed-caps
