Hi,
I am the developer of UltiSnips, the ultimate snippet solution for
vim[1]. A user of mine has reported a bug [2] that is hard for me to
fix and I am in search of inspiration on this list.
UltiSnips selects part of text by using feedkeys(). For example to
select two lines for overwriting in insert mode, we would use
something like
feedkeys("\<Esc>v2j\<c-g>")
The user now has a langmap set, which remaps the j key and the whole
scheme falls down. My idea was now to cache the content of the langmap
option and restore it after the feedkeys() call. Unfortunately, the
feedkeys() keys are not evaluated till after my script has finished
running; at this point in time, the langmap is already restored and
therefore the feedkeys call does not work out.
Is there a way to force the evaluation of the keyboard buffer? Or is
there maybe a clever autocommand in which I can restore the contents
of langmap, so that it is not set after my scripts run (so that
feedkeys() does the right thing) but it is reset as soon as the user
needs it.

Thanks for your help!
