Brackets completion plugin - feature request

[nicoursi]

 * Xed version (3.4.3)
 * Distribution - (Mint 21.2)

Issue
The brackets completion plugin is nice but sometimes it gets in the way. For example, if I decide to wrap some existing text in brackets, I will get () as soon as I type ( and then I will have to delete ) and type it again at the end of the block. I suggest to apply brackets to a selection:

• Select the text,
• type (
• get the following result: (selected text)

Steps to reproduce
Existing line of code:
if pkt[TCP].flags=="A":
Type an open bracket after the if statement:
if (pkt[TCP].flags=="A":

Expected behaviour
if (pkt[TCP].flags=="A":

What really happens
if ()pkt[TCP].flags=="A":

Suggestion

1. select some text
2. type an open bracket (
3. get the following result: (selected text)
