Issue with typing circumflexes

[spf13]

One of the users of spf13-vim which includes this plugin reported the following.

my first language is Portuguese and a need the letters (a,e,o) with circumflex on them. I can type Â, ê, Ê, ô, Ô in (g)vim, but not â. I think there is a plug-in that mapped this 2 letters and I am unable to type it.

We have tracked the issue down to the auto-pairs plugin.

We believe the issue arises from https://github.com/jiangmiao/auto-pairs/blob/master/plugin/auto-pairs.vim#L127

Same problem here. There are a lot of î ô â ... in the french language.

We believe the issue arises from https://github.com/jiangmiao/auto-pairs/blob/master/plugin/auto-pairs.vim#L127 Line 127 is empty. I am still dealing with the damn issue... We are in the mid-2017! Please someone fix it!

I cannot type "â" = circumflex ^ + a in my vim, because it does not work. I am using spf-13 that should eliminate this plugin once and for all since no one cares about fixing it. Other people are complaining about the same issue. See above - French speakers...

Same here, surprising that this is the default since it's a common accent...
