If I select a function name from the auto-complete list, 99% of the time I'm going to need parenthesis after that. (The one exception I can think of is a function pointer specification.) Is it or would it be possible to add the parenthesis and move the cursor between them?

Thanks.

VA can already do this for you, simply turn On:

VA Options -> Advanced -> Correction -> insert () and closing } ) ] ' "

and you can even set the number of spaces you want between the end of the function name and the round brackets. If the function, or one of its overloads takes parameters then VA will place the caret inside the brackets, otherwise VA will place the caret after the brackets.

This is all explained here:
