But that only helps if the left (opening) parenthesis is in
the same window, but the OP asked what do when that isn't
the case.

I agree with him it is a pretty bad state, I think it should
be outputted in the echo area the same that happens when you
write a right (closing) parenthesis and the left one isn't in
the window.
