I've been interested in text editors ever since I learned that
control-s wouldn't save a file on the TTY, so I spent some time
just now on some research directly using the concept of "reveal codes".
TL;DR there's nothing I can see.
The solution appears to be to examine available markup languages to see
what supports your needs.
As others have said, TeX is likely the solution.
There are lots of TeX editors, and I have no particular recommendations
as I have not tried any. Here's one:
https://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/index.html
(I don't know if it does footnotes)
FYI I've heard the developers of WordPerfect said that "reveal codes"
was inspired by TeX. I think that knowledge comes from this book:
http://www.wordplace.com/ap/index.shtml
Some random dead-end research:
LibreOffice reveal codes
2011-02-07 - NEW
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34002
Apache OpenOffice reveal codes
WONTFIX
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=3395
Word Perfect ported to UNIX:
https://github.com/taviso/wpunix
As an aside:
There used to be "CrossEyes" which created reveal codes in MS Word 2010:

But it seems to be native:
