Start by reproducing the reported dd/ee input behavior in VSCodeVim 1.2.0 on Windows 10 with VSCode 1.32.3, using Developers: Show Running Extensions to confirm the versions. Trace the extension's input handling and verify that UTF-8 characters such as đ and ê remain intact instead of becoming d and e.
