Steps to Reproduce:

div#app>(div>p#test*2) correctly expands to:

<div id="app">
  <div>
    <p id="test"></p>
    <p id="test"></p>
  </div>
</div>

while div#app>(div>p#test*2)*2 incorrectly expands to:

<div id="app">
</div>

it should expand to:

<div id="app">
  <div>
    <p id="test"></p>
    <p id="test"></p>
  </div>
  <div>
    <p id="test"></p>
    <p id="test"></p>
  </div>
</div>

The same abbreviation expands correctly in Atom with the official Emmet plugin. (Tested just in case I was typing emmet jibberish!)

Reproduces without extensions: Yes
