Hello,

Okay, thanks, I understand better now what you're trying to accomplish.

This isn't fundamentally about comments at all.  For example, these
multichar pairs could include the opening "case" and closing "esac" in a
shell script, right?

If that's right, then I'm not sure a new electric minor mode is the
right thing.  We already have abbrevs and skeletons which work for this
sort of thing.  Indeed, this is exactly how sh-case is already
implemented.
