emacs -Q
M-x electric-pair-mode RET
f o o C-SPC C-a
The point should now be at the beginning of a line that contains the
string: foo
Typing " inserts quotes around foo, but the point is moved to the end of
the line. After inserting a pair, the point is moved after the last
item in the pair, regardless if the point was at the begging of the
region.
It would be better if the point stayed in the same location. Or at
least offer a configuration variable to allow that behavior.
Thanks

Agreed. Fix welcome.

I don't think it's needed.

Unfortunately I won't have any time to look at this for quite a
while... :-(
