I'm only just now learning about BPA, so I apologize if this is a
silly question, but would it be any faster to scan a buffer and
determine that there are no rtl characters so parentheses matching is
unnecessary?

Yeah, I wasn't aware that the end of the buffer had more slowness, but
that's good to know.
