Yes, I think we should add some version of this.  I am currently 
testing a
syntax-propertize-function addition to solve an issue related to
electric-pair-mode and will have a look at this straight after.

There was another request to automatically insert `end` when `do` 
is
entered, which might be a good addition as well.
