Wrap with abbreviation history

[benlane]

Coming from atom this is a feature that i miss.

When wrapping with abbreviation you could use the up and down arrows to go through previously used abbreviations.

So if you had created a long abbreviation and it was slightly wrong or you wanted to reuse you wouldn't have to type it out all over again.

That's a great feature.
PRs are welcome.
I can guide anyone who wants to take this up.
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/blob/release/1.19/extensions/emmet/src/abbreviationActions.ts#L32 is where to start.

Hi @ramya-rao-a,
I'd like to work on this. It'd be great if you could explain the issue in more detail, with some steps to reproduce.

Thanks.

I think I spoke too soon.
We have a control to take user typed input. (vscode.window.showInputBox)
We have a control to take user input from given array of choices. (vscode.window.showQuickPick)
For this feature, we would need both.
An array of choices to choose from, and to type in a value that is not in the array.

AFAIK we dont have a control that can do this.
@bpasero Can you confirm?
