Oh, great! Amazing that this has been worked on so recently.
It's almost what I want... But I think it should be the default
behavior for 'auto-close quotes and brackets', instead of a plugin. I
don't think any extra configuration options are necessary - nobody
would complain about it if they've already turned on the 'auto-close'
feature. I also think that the actual characters are much more
appropriate triggers than 'Ctrl+<key>'.


Thanks for your help!
Nathan
