If we're going to use links to automatically decode spoilered text, it's not clear to me why we can't still use rot13 for the spoilering, and just make it linked rot13.

I voted for 'quaint internet tradition', but I don't think it's all that quaint; it's a very practical Internet tradition.

Perfect. Easy to use, preserves markup, can be used on mobile devices/without and special hardware, all the information is preserved in the link, and it even has decoded hover-text.

Motion to make this the standard rot13 tool, I for one will start using it.
