I think the number of professional DTPers using Rev is probably

address a wide variety of features for many different purposes.
Upgraded text handling is definitely on their list of things to do,
but for now I'd hate to see them waste time putting in an awkward
work-around. I'd rather they just worked on the real thing when the
time comes.
In the mean time, put this in a field and kern away:
on keyup which
if which = space and the controlkey is down then
put word 2 of the selectedchunk into tPos
put space into the selection
set the textsize of char tPos of me to 1 -- adjust if necessary
else pass keyup
end keyup
No images required, but it will definitely wreck any text parsing
you want to do. The same would apply to your proposed work-around
though, so this script should be a parallel solution.

Thank you for the info and code. I wasn't the one who started this
thread and from your
statement about wrecking any text parsing I will hold off on
justification for now. But it is
important to know if the Rev Team decides to use Apples MLTE text
engine you can be
assured Kerning and Tracking will not ever be made available so it is
time to forget it or
write your own text engine using and extension or whatever.
