Thanks.  In this case, I think we can have a sort of API by patching the
function `TeX-fold-auto-reveal-p' and declaring a standard var like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defvar-local TeX-fold-auto-reveal-external-commands nil
  "List of external commands which may cause a fold to be revealed.
This is list is intended for external packages ...")

(defun TeX-fold-auto-reveal-p (mode)
  "Decide whether to auto-reveal.
Return non-nil if folded region should be auto-opened.
See `TeX-fold-auto-reveal' for definitions of MODE."
  (cond ((symbolp mode)
         (and (boundp mode)
              (symbol-value mode)))
        ;; Clause modified:
        ((and (consp mode)
              (null TeX-fold-auto-reveal-external-commands))
         (apply (car mode) (cdr mode)))
        ;; Clause added:
        ((and (consp mode) TeX-fold-auto-reveal-external-commands)
         (apply (car mode) (cons (caadr mode)
                                 (append TeX-fold-auto-reveal-external-commands
                                         (cdadr mode)))))
        (t mode)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Does this make sense?  The question would then be: Should
`TeX-fold-auto-reveal-external-commands' be a regualar var or a custom
one?

Yes, sorry, I should have looked more carefully.  I'm not that familiar
with the code, so bear with me.

Best, Arash
