For me electricKeys are only a source of problems and waste of time. What I suggest is possibility to turn them off in Options / Editing. This would make it possible on a per mode basis.

After turning off the electric keys (which would in the same time switch off the indenting brackets) some lines would be indented incorrectly. So a macro would be needed to restore the missing functionality with the enter key:

textArea.indentSelectedLines();
textArea.insertEnterAndIndent();

Now the last part: this new enter key must not be used for lines indented manually. Instead of enter C-enter should be pressed which would be assigned to the old command Insert Newline and Indent.

Does it make sense? I think it should not harm anyone and leave the field for further improvements.

So we have a simple feature request here and some background given. Let's limit discussion under this ticket to this simple feature request. If one wants to extend the subject, please do it on a mailing list. We will link it from here later.
