Still someone managed to write an extension that does this, I think. I guess it fakes it somehow. Some people also think that it's not a good habit using them, and that styles is the way to go and so on. Some people also says that it's a bad habit to use a lot of character styles in text. So it seems like a lot of people are against the idea of reveal codes while others want them. I don't know. I have no use for them personally, so I don't care, but… well…
