Bug Description

i turned it on to try it and got a closing bracket when i typed one like:

{}
""
''

i disliked this and turned it off and started getting this

{}}
"""
'''
[]]

geeze! i turned it on again and got this!
{}}}
""""
''''
[]]]

most likely this will continue, help me turn this out of control thing off!

Further notes: If you restart gedit the bracket completion is no longer present, even though the plugin is still apparently enabled.

Anyone have a workaround? How do I turn the plugin off for real?
