In Emacs there is a package called up-list (I think VSCode has tabout). When inside a balanced expression (in quotes, parentheses, braces, etc.), pressing TAB will move outside the expression. E.g.
The | represents the cursor:
“This is a phrase |with a (parethetical expression)” Pressing TAB moves outside the right "
“This is a phrase with a (parethetical |expression)” Pressing TAB moves outside the right ), pressing TAB again moves outside the right ".
Proposed solution
Probably needs some developer work, rather than a plugin.
Current workaround (optional)
Option+right-arrow, then some right-arrow, ad nauseum
Important Note
Popularity of a Feature Request is one of the factors we consider when we decide which new features to implement. Therefore, we strongly recommend you to search the forum with possible keywords.
If your request is very similar to an existing one, like it () and make a meaningful comment, rather than creating a new thread. It also keeps the forum sane! If you find duplicate threads, feel free to send the moderators a message.

Use case or problem
Hi, I’m a user from Korea. I really love using Obsidian, but I have a suggestion regarding the "Auto pair" feature. Currently, when a quote or bracket is auto-completed, I have to use the arrow keys or type the closing symbol again to get out.
Proposed solution
It would be amazing if we could have an option to jump out of the closing symbol by simply pressing the "Enter" key. It would make the writing flow much smoother. Thanks!
