Description Channing Walton CLA 2004-10-26 06:23:52 EDT 
I would find it useful when confronted with monster nested if-else blocks to be
able to put my cursor on an 'if' or 'else' and for the corresponding ifs and
elses to be highlighted.

e.g.

if (..) {
} else {
  if () {
  } else if () {
  } else {
  }
}

putting the cursor on the first if would highlight the first else, putting the
cursor on the nested if would highlight the nested 'else if' and else.
