Large file support is a big one. I had to use different editors to open big log/sql files. Now I managed to open 280 MB SQL file without problems. It did take 15 seconds to open, but didn't hang the UI and after that time it worked perfectly fine. I wonder if it would be even faster if minimap was disabled.
vscode is great but code folding is still a mess. Just yesterday I lost about a half an hour of work because I cut and pasted some folded code and it mangled a completely different portion of the document.
Yes, please file an issue if you can reproduce this error: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/new You may want to also try disabling extensions to make sure that one of them is not causing this
Unless something drastic happened in this release, I think it's premature to enable autoindent by default. The implementation in 1.14 has been atrociously buggy, and plays badly with undo. (Pasting will add an additional undo entry, so to undo a paste requires two undos.)
In my experience, the autoindenting usually wrong, and my hypothesis is that it's because it uses regexps to determine indentation level, not the AST, which is introducing lots of false positives as well as negatives.
I liked VS Code because it was simple and fast, but now with every update they add more and more features that I don't need. When will it be enough? It will just end up being the same behemoth as Vistual Studio with this rate of development.

Now if only they could get the real visual studio to go 64-bit so it stops crashing when you load too many symbols.
