Space expanding within string

[cocreature]

I realized that if I start writing a string like " this it gets autocompleted to "" which is exactly what I want. The Problem is, if my string starts with a space this space gets doubled as well so that I that I have to spaces instead of one in my string, which is of course not what I want. Is there any setting to disable this? If it's not possible to disable it only for strings starting with "" or '' I'd like to disable it completely.

Just thought I would mention that this seems related Issue #54

Looking through old issues I found this one: #29 in which @artm suggests the following to turn off the feature altogether:

let g:AutoCloseExpandSpace = 0
