Suppose I have a function void foo(char*)

When I write 'foo(' VA automatically places the ) to produce 'foo()'.
But when I open a " to pass a literal string to foo, VA's not smart enough to place the ending " before the closing paren and leaves me at foo("*cursor*)

Wouldn't smarter placing of ending "s and others be a nice feature to have?

Looks like a bug to me. When I type char* str = "| then I do get the closing ".

Another use case is when you have void foo()
and somewhere you copy-and-paste foo and get:
foo;

writing ( after foo won't automatically put a ).

Interesting, I am seeing the same thing. I would have expected a closing bracket to be inserted.
