Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?: Bug report

Environment:

• VSCode Version: 1.12.2
• VsCodeVim Version: 0.8.4
• OS: Windows 10

What happened:
I inserted a tab, pressed Esc and repeated the command with .. I expected a tab to be inserted. Instead, the cursor moved back a character and no tab was inserted.

I can re-insert spaces, however.

How to reproduce it:
<Esc>i<Tab><Esc>.

This is a duplicate of #612

I thought I'd fixed this issue in the past, but this issue is actually a massive pain.

A "tab" in VSCode is not actually just a "tab". It can be an autocomplete, emmetcompletion, etc.
