Cmd-{ is not so practical regarding to non-US keyboard users, but  
maybe Cmd-B

Cmd-B could simply toggle the boolean RTextView_autoCloseBrackets or  
could disable the auto-pair function for the next keydown event.(?)



On the other hand one could improve the auto-pair behaviour

-by checking the character right from the cursor (if there's one)
Example in RTextView.m > method keyDown:
...
[super keyDown:theEvent];
{
	r = [self selectedRange];
	NSTextStorage *ts = [self textStorage];
	BOOL flag = YES;
	if([ts length] > r.location){
		unichar c = [[ts string] characterAtIndex:r.location];
		flag=(c==' ' || c==',' || c==';' || c==']' || c==')' || c=='}')? 
YES:NO;
	}
	if (r.location != NSNotFound && flag) {
		// NSAttributedString *as = [[NSAttributedString alloc]  
initWithString:complement attributes:
		// [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:TAVal forKey:kTALinked]];
		NSTextStorage *ts = [self textStorage];
		[self replaceCharactersInRange:r withString:complement];
		r.length=1;
		[ts addAttribute:kTALinked value:TAVal range:r];
		r.length=0;
		[self setSelectedRange:r];
	}
	return;
}
...

-by adding the possibility to select something in the command line  
and press (,[,{,", or ' to wrap the selection.
Example:  123456  you select 34 and press (  =  12(34)56

I use this very often for editing the command line ;)

Best,
