Why not drop > TeX-insert-dollar altogether and let $ be bound to > self-insert-command? electric-pair doesn't know anything about (La)TeX, its math mode, its comments, its verbatim constructs, instead `TeX-insert-dollar' is much smarter and we are trying to improve it further. I don't see why one should want to lose all its features binding `$' to `self-insert-command'. For example, if we manage to apply the patch we are talking about, you'll be able to do all you can do with electric-pair, but also to insert `\(...\)' (and in LaTeX this is often more useful than `$...$', e.g., see http://texblog.net/latex-archive/maths/inline-math-mode/) or toggle "inline math" → "display math" → "no math". Believe me, you won't miss electric-pair for `$' ;-)
