OK. After spending some time testing various things out I've managed to
narrow the problem down a little bit.

The problem only seems to manifest itself when editing HTML files with
gVim. When editing the same HTML file with the command line version of
Vim the problem does not occur (even though exactly the same
configuration / plugins are in use when using both).

I've looked through my configuration for any HTML specific options and
tried to disable them all but to no avail.

I've also tried the version of gVim in the Ubuntu repositories with the
same problem. I'm completely stumped.

I currently have the following plugins installed:

YouCompleteMe
ack
ctrlp
gundo
minibufexpl
nerdtree
powerline
pydoc
pytest
syntastic
tagbar
ultisnips
fugitive
vim-pony
vim-virtualenv
Pathogen
dbext
autocomplpop
l9
python_editing.vim
