Thanks. Every time I delete a pair of quotes in a long string,
or a pair of parens in a long sexp, it makes me feel uneasy since
I worry whether it deleted the intended characters or not.
How about using the same delay blink-matching-delay that is used
after showing a matching paren, but in this case to show
a character at the other end of the pair with a delay
before deleting it?
This is achievable with this patch:
diff --git a/lisp/emacs-lisp/lisp.el b/lisp/emacs-lisp/lisp.el
index ac4ba78897..88e1b26af3 100644
