Backspace doesn't work in active code pane

[crossan007]

• VSCode Version: 1.13.0
• OS Version: Android Linux 3.4.113-Lineage-ga22c622

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open a file in VS Code
2. Place cursor at right edge of existing text
3. Press backspace key
4. Expect characters to be removed "right to left"
5. No characters are removed.

The backspace key does function in the extensions search window, but not in the code editor window.

This makes it very important to write perfect code on the first attempt.

I also have the same problem, backspace key not work on editor window, and the 5 key is not input a 5 number. 5 key is instead backspace key behavior

VSCode Version: 1.14.0 OS Version: Android 6.0 using 'linuxdeploy' install Debian stretch version on armhf arch, VNC connect it

1. press ESC will trigger the keymap setting, not change the vim status
2. the backspace no response in text editor.

after change the follow item: File--->Preference--->setting---->change the keyboard item which under the application, from "code" to "keyboard"
