Unfortunately for me, I've had several situations where IDEA build #611 did
not type over the braces. That's what prompted me to write the e-mail in
the first place.

The team I work with uses IntelliJ exclusively - and we usually download
the new EAP build as soon as it's available. The very morning I downloaded
#611 I ran across situations where there were too many closing parenthesis
in a statement. That's what prompted my search for a 'on off' toggle in the
IDE options box, and the e-mail to this list when I didn't find one.

I'm afraid that at the moment, I cannot consistently reproduce situations
where I do get extra braces, and where IDEA types over them for me. I
vaguely remember it having something to do with me backspacing over typos.
I'll be sure to submit a bug report when I encounter a reproducible
situation again.
