In theory, `blink-paren' and `show-paren' both do a similar job of
displaying the opposite side of a balanced expression.  But looking at code
in `blink-paren' and `show-paren', I see absolutely nothing in common.

The first small piece of common code will be counting an even number of
quoting characters, but even this part will differ significantly
because unlike `blink-paren', `show-paren' needs to work in both
directions: backwards and forwards.
