electric-brace indents by default, but if skeleton is used it gives the
precedence to it, and doesn't indent:

(if (and (boundp 'skeleton-pair) skeleton-pair (featurep 'skeleton))
    (skeleton-pair-insert-maybe "{")

I am using skeleton-pair for "(", "[" but not for "{".
Thus, the above piece of code does exactly what I
don't want (skeleton-pair-insert-maybe "{").

I must be missing something, the reason for skeleton-pair quite eludes
me here. If "{" is bound to ess-electric-brace it should be electric-brace and not
skeleton-pair, shouldn't it?

Thanks for looking into it,
Vitalie.
