Description

Describe the bug

When I highlight multiple items and press tab, I expect the "indent" operation to be performed. Instead, nothing happens (or I even get tab focus shifted)

To Reproduce

Misc

  • Node version:
  • Package manager: Yarn
  • Browser: Chrome
  • I'm a sponsor and would appreciate if you could look into this sooner than later 💖

Research direction

Start by reproducing the behavior in the linked minimal example with a multi-item selection, then trace the editor's Tab handling for that selection. Done means pressing Tab indents the highlighted items instead of doing nothing or moving focus; the payload does not name a file or test to run.
