If you can, I think it would be a good idea to remove the paren pair if the
user deletes the opening paren he just typed by mistake. Undo should do the
same (which apparently it does not currently; missing

For what it's worth, Xcode differentiates these cases by inserting a
temporary closing paren that is gray instead of black. You can make it
permanent by arrowing over it, typing it yourself, tabbing over it, or just
moving the cursor outside the matching parens. When it becomes permanent it

No. I've disabled it and similar features on every code editor I've used.
2a. If yes, does the proposal above resonate well with you?
