Just to clarify on the desired behaviour:
With `|` is (point):
When typing the first quote `"|` it pairs to be `"|"` as single
quote
strings are valid in Elixir. Then when typing the second `"` it
skips
the second quote `""|`, now when typing the third quote `""|"` it
pairs
the heredoc: `"""|"""` and with electric-layout it will now insert
the
newlines: `"""\n|\n"""`.
This means, as the original report, the user can type
`@doc """|` and will correctly jump into the heredoc and
tree-sitter
grammar will stay valid.
@doc """
|
"""
There is no scenario in Elixir I can thin of where this is not the
desired behaviour.
