I don't see why anyone would want to put more than 1 such operator
in a skeleton anyway. So reason why I want to make it unconditional
is so that you can do (nil "do {" \n _ \n "} while (" - ")") and be
sure that point will always end up between the parens (I wouldn't
want this behavior, personally, but given such a skeleton why would
the author have put the `-' if it's not to specify where to place
point).
