This could be done by having a new Expand With option of <nothing> in Live
Templates. This would trigger the template as soon as a matching
abbreviation was typed, rather than checking when the [space,tab,enter] key
is pressed. That way, the Block template, the one that does matching {},
could trigger as soon as the user types { and Hani would be happy again!
This might make the editor slower - having to check after each keypress
rather than just after [space,tab,enter] - I guess you'd have to try it and
see?
Just a thought,
