Accent keys with space work differently than expected

[TheSilvus]

Pressing the ^ (or any other accent) key and then Space causes a space to appear.

Normal behavior (on Windows at least) is the accent character appearing on its own without a space behind it. Following the accent key with an "accentable" letter (e.g. a) works as expected, as does entering a non-accentable character (e.g. .) which causes the second character to appear after the accent (^.).

I'm currently only able to test this for Windows.

I'm using the version bundled with NVim 0.3.4 ( https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/tag/v0.3.4 ).

This looks related to Issue #720. We should add some unit tests, and validate this scenario in Pull #721.

@TheSilvus This issue may be fixed by #721

If you have the ability to test the proposed fix, it would be greatly appreciated.

I am familiar with keyboard layouts for accented characters...
