Tab indentation is disabled

See original GitHub issue

What is the problem?

I wrote markdown document for converting pandoc. My indent settings is set to “Indent using Tabs”. When pressing tab key for writing ordered or unordered lists, double or triple spaces were inserted before list (double spaces for unordered list and triple spaces for ordered list).

How can I reproduce it?

My environment is VSCode Ver. 1.29.1 on Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon edition (64bit).

Initialize VSCode ($HOME/.vscode and $HOME/.config/Code are removed).
Launch VSCode.
Create and save a new markdown document.
Set to “Indent using tabs” of indent setting by clicking status bar.
Write ordered and unordered lists (Each list has two lists).
Press tab key on a child list and confirm of indentation by tab (In this time, I confirmed that the indent is tab).
Install Markdown All in One.
Reload VSCode to enable the extension.
Confirm status for indentation by repeating procedure 3 to 6 (The issue was occured).

Is there any error message in the console?

No.

Probably related: My indent settings are spaces: 4, and yet this update makes tab-indents only indent 2 spaces. So it is just ignoring indent settings completely.

Also, VSC 1.3 released a few hours ago has a new feature that allows you to specify what extension version you want installed, so you can now easily freeze this extension to v1.70.
