Actually, I was just thinking about it and it would be nice if, when the
caret is inside the if statement body, I hit the closing '}' the editor
recognizes I'm done inside the if and goes ahead and takes me outside the
body of the if statement.
for instance:
if(true) {
x();<caret>
}
then I hit '}' and this results in
if(true) {
x();
}
<caret>
ready for me to type 'else'... This way the user doesn't have to use the
arrow keys to get out of the body to continue typing.
