Summary: auto () insertion could be improved

Initial Comment:
The feature I'm talking about is where syn automatically 
adds the closing ) as you type the first ( in an 'if' 
statement, etc.

If you accidently type the closing paren manually, syn 
will add a second pair of parens and you end up with 
something like this  (where the pipe is the cursor):

if ()|()

Now try hitting backspace and retype the ) again. You 
will end up with this:

if ()|(()

Ideally, once you hit the backspace to delete the ) that 
you accidently manually entered, syn should also remove 
the ( in the second pair of parens that it automatically 
inserted.

t.d.

This could be submitted as a feature request if desired.  It
should not be IMHO a bug.

The problem causing this has been fixed (see bug [ 909460 ]
Complete brackets sometimes wrong).  I don't think Syn
should be trying to remember characters and automatically
undo them based on the next key.  That's why there is an
undo feature.
