In Orgmode mismatching with => in SRC code segments

This is a problem with org-mode setting syntactical properties of text incorrectly: since it doesn't require >
or (
to be paired with its corresponding opening/closing character, it should not mark them as pairable delimiters in its syntax table, except maybe in contexts where they are paired, by marking those particular uses with appropriate text properties.
This doesn't only affect rainbow-delimiters, but also potentially any other package that relies on the Emacs syntax engine, depending on how tolerant of incorrect syntax it is.
To quote myself from #64 (comment):
Rainbow-delimiters is quite intentionally simply following what the Emacs syntax engine tells it — the same syntax engine that's used by
{backward,forward}-sexp
andshow-paren-mode
and everything that callssyntax-ppss
and so on — both for simplicity reasons and consistency with the rest of the ecosystem. Changing that would require significant effort that's very similar to #1: not impossible, but very difficult to ensure correctness of, because there are approximately seventy five billion edge cases to consider.
