This hack is no longer useful now that the Visual Studio bug is fixed. I'm leaving it here in case it's useful a sample for hacking around similar issues that come up.

AutoHotKey to the rescue! Fighting tirelessly against the evils of bad keyboard UX.

Here's how to set up a script that binds Ctrl+F12 to a key sequence that sets space indents, goes to the definition, and then restores tab indents. Use it instead of F12 to go to definitions outside your codebase:

1. Install AutoHotKey.
2. Create a new file somewhere named something like FixF12.ahk. Paste into it the script below.
3. Open your Startup folder. You can get there by typing shell:startup into the Windows Explorer location bar.
4. Right-click drag FixF12.ahk into Startup and create a shortcut.
5. Run the shortcut.

Script for FixF12.ahk:

#NoEnv
SendMode Input

^F12::
WinGetActiveTitle Title
IfInString Title, Microsoft Visual Studio
{
  Send, ^QC{#} tabs{Enter}
  Sleep, 300
  Send, !p
  Sleep, 300
  Send, {Enter}
  Send, {F12}
  Send, !tO
  Sleep, 300
  Send, !k
  Sleep, 300
  Send, {Enter}
}
else
{
  Send, {^F12}
}

The script is a hack, complete with flashing dialog boxes and a race condition, but it does the job. Don't forget to upvote the bug report in Connect. Hopefully Microsoft will release a fix before Update 1.
