I don't, not directly. I just use whatever (syntax-table) says, as does
`show-paren-mode' FWIW. And it says that text-mode buffers are all the
same context and should have balanced parenthesis. Perhaps it shouldn't.

For every :-( there should be a :-), see?
Seriously, while I won't stand in the way of having some
`electric-pair-mode'-related default hookage in text-mode-hook, why
isn't this fixed in text-mode's syntax-table? Aren't those wrong
assumptions the real culprit?
Do you want to recognize that the "sad example :-(" is in "a different
context" than the function call foo(), and so should not be paired? If
so, there's emacs machinery that separate those contexts (comment and
non-comment) and `electric-pair-mode' can take that into consideration
via `electric-pair-text-syntax-table'.
But you obviously know this, so what do you have in mind?
