Writing the command is simple - finding a keybinding is harder.
I will make so that using S-up or S-down on one of the brackets
will switch the type.  If you have a good proposal for another

Well, I cannot officially take your code, but if you show me an 
"example"
implementation, it will probably be faster still.
