title: Can I influence number of child elements in custom emmet snippet by the multiplication given to the abbreviation?
body: <p>I've been trying to convert my company's old emmet snippets that are used in sublime text to emmet 2.0 and use them in VS Code. I stumbled accross a strange problem, in the old custom emmet snippets that were used in Sublime Text you could type in nav*3 and receive this markup</p>
  <pre><code>&lt;nav&gt;
      &lt;ul&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;
              &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
  
          &lt;li&gt;
              &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
  
          &lt;li&gt;
              &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
      &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/nav&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>Now, when I try to run the same snippet i get three separate navs.</p>
  <pre><code>&lt;nav&gt;
      &lt;ul&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;
              &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
      &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/nav&gt;
  &lt;nav&gt;
      &lt;ul&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;
              &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
      &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/nav&gt;
  &lt;nav&gt;
      &lt;ul&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;
              &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
      &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/nav&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>The snippet responsible for this abbreviation should be this one, I couldn't find any information and how to make it work in emmet 2.0 and how exactly it worked before.</p>
  <pre><code>{
      &quot;html&quot;: {
          &quot;snippets&quot;: {
              &quot;nav&quot;: &quot;nav&gt;ul&gt;li*&gt;a&quot;, //abbreviation responsible for nav snippet
          }
      },
  </code></pre>
  <p>If anybody could help me make this work I would be very grateful. I've taken and edited the snippets.json file from my company's github repo as the snippets were used in a custom emmet version created by the company. I'm starting to wonder if that has to do with how the snippets worked. You can see the original snippets.json file <a href="https://github.com/2createStudio/2createEmmet/blob/master/extensions/snippets.json" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>.</p>
