Yasnippet mirrors doesn't comply with autocomplete/company mode #588

Hi there! I really appreciate all the work for the yasnippet.

However, I'm sometimes struggling with a bug. For example, you have the following snippet

   class $1 {

   } // End of class $1

So when you're typing foobar in the first $1, then the second $1 will have the same as the first $1.

But sometimes you will get already a suggest from Company mode, that he could autocomplete the foobar for you in when you typing fo. When I press tab in order to accept the complete suggestion, then the second $1 will not get the input while $1 is being completed by company.

I'm aware this is somewhat complex to debug, but I'm wondering if this is even possible to solve it?

Thanks in advance for your answer.

@ReneFroger Maybe you need to try to bind company-mode select to [C-j] instead of [Tab] to test whether this is a problem of key conflicting.

I guess the problem is Company mode bypasses some modification hooks that yasnippet relies on? Maybe there is other hook that Company runs when it inserts a completion?
