Why's textile reference doesn't mention anything about this feature.
Well... As the link explains, the 'caps' span is there so that we can
style acronyms. This is very strange to me. How come the people who
implementet this didn't use the already existing acronym tag in
HTML for this?

Thomas,
I agree, but perhaps not everything in caps would be an acronym. You
can achieve the acronym effect by putting something in parentheses
after the term. Example:
HTML(HyperText Markup Language)
produces
acronym title=HyperText Markup LanguageHTML/acronym
