Description

Hi, I'm having a little annoyance when using the evil-escape-key-sequence, basically when I do kj the indentation on the current line is modified. In the following animation I just want to add the close parenthesis ) in it's own line but keep it currently indented, so I just do RET and the ) gets correctly indented but as soon as I escape kj the ) moves out.

evil-escape

In the animation I do a second test but now pressing ESC and you can see it works fine without moving out the ), so it's only happening when using the key sequence.

Is there any magic setting I could use to avoid this effect?

Thanks

Research direction
Examine the evil escape post command hook and its interaction with indentation functions. Look for any buffer modifications that revert indentation after the escape sequence.
