Auto-surround selection with brackets when typing a bracket

I used to work with Visual Assist (boooo ;)), and even though I find R# much better on so many levels, it had one really cool feature that I miss: select a block of text (usually multiple lines), hit {, and bam it would automatically surround & format: { ... selection ... }
Same with a single-line selection, hit (, you'd get: ( ... selection ... ) (great for ifs).
I think it would even work for # so you can easily #define a code block.

I find the surround menu to be much more cumbersome. Is there an hidden option, plugin, etc?
