The need for the reveal codes feature is debated on this list every 6 months or so as many people think like you and would very much like to see it implemented. OOo instead is styles based, and I can assure you that once you start using styles the misbehaving text becomes a thing of the past. Of course you will have to re-train yourself and I understand that it is not easy. I was told that there is a macro around that can mimic to a point the reveal codes feature... maybe if you google for it you may find it. So the problem is,. How do I convert WordPerfect 7 files to OpenOffice 2.4files. OpenOffice can open .wpd documents, so all you have to do is to open them, check that the import filter made a decent job and then save them in .odt.
