hook-up org-reveal when using grep-find or pressing n or p in ediff
control panel sounds like what I have been looking for for a long
time.

Is this documented? I couldn't find it in the Org manual, Emacs
manual, Worg or EmacsWiki. Just enabling reveal-mode before
ediff-buffers alone doesn't seem to do the trick. At least for
grep-find a C-c C-r on each match helps but it would be easier without
when stepping through, similar to M-x occur or
org-occur-in-agenda-files.

How can also drawers be revealed for org-occur etc?

No enabling reveal-mode did not worked for me either, that's why i
wrote "the only thing that could have worked better".

reveal-mode actually works, if you C-x o from the Ediff control panel
buffer to one of the source buffers and then back again. So it
probably has a check inside of it, that only reveals if buffer is the
active one.

Should be possible to do some magics with defadvice to make it happen
regardless if buffer is current or not, if buffer is part of Ediff
session or some other special condition.
