Isn't this all irrelevant, since, in order to have true "reveal codes,"
OOo would have to be completely rewritten? EB

I don't think it would. Why cannot the styles (T1-Tx), which are the holders for the formatting be revealed in an editable format? Then the best of both worlds could be realized.

If you look at the content.xml there is a Tx token for each formatting change. This toke in defined at the beginning of the document. As was suggested by Jallan, an Properties Map could resolve this problem. I say supply the map and the ability to view where the styles tokens are located within the document and issue with reveal codes will be almost resolved. No need to re-write anything. Just an overlying style editor.

The more this thread explains things to me, the more I see both sides of the argument.
