Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (choose one): Bug Report

Environment:

• VSCode Version: 1.17.2
• VsCodeVim Version: 0.10.2
• OS: Ubuntu 17.10, Windows 10

What happened:

Switching to a split window and performing an undo undoes all the previous actions in the other split.

What did you expect to happen:

Only the most recent action should have be undone. Instead, that action, plus all the actions that occurred in the other split, were undone. In the example below, only the insertion of garply should have been undone; instead, that plus all the other insertions in the other split (bar and baz) were undone.

How to reproduce it:

1. Open a new, untitled file
2. Ctrl-\ to split the window
3. Insert text and return to normal mode: ifoo^[
4. Switch to other split: ^W^W
5. Perform multiple actions (e.g. multiple text inserts): obar^[obaz^[
6. Switch back to first split: ^W^W
7. Insert text: ogarply^[
8. Undo: u

I've had the same issue and I believe this is related #565. Any thoughts from core team members?

I meant to say #928.

Yep. Closing this in favor of #928 .
