    Description

      (in the listings below, | marks the cursor position and + type x means the users types that key (x, in this case))

      When typing any scope introducer ((, ", ...), QtC helpfully provides the closer as-you-type:

      const auto s = |               + type "
const auto s = "|"

      However, it doesn't do that for the raw string literal's closing ):

      const auto s = R|               + type "
const auto s = R"|"             + type (
const auto s = R"(|"

      Expected:

      const auto s = R|               + type "
const auto s = R"|"             + type (
const auto s = R"(|)"

      This should also work with (and use/copy) a user-provided d-char-seq:

      const auto s = R|               + type "
const auto s = R"|"             + type -
const auto s = R"-|"            + type *
const auto s = R"-*|"           + type (
const auto s = R"-*(|)-*"
