I _hate_ it when the "editor" decides to insert stuff I didn't
type. There's an html editor I use occasionally that auto-inserts the
closing tag when you type an opening tag. It's, always, 100% of the
time, wrong. Either the tag ends up in the wrong place, or it's a
duplicate because there was already a closing tag.

Maybe it matters how good a typist you are, but I don't really
concentrate that hard on watching the letters show up on the screen,
so any sort of "IDE know better than you do" stuff tends to trip me
up.

Yep, I do allow emacs to do auto indent.

Same here.
