 > The only reason why I'd want a code button for the visual editor is
 inline code references (like a function name or something). Part of the
 problem with adding a button is block-level handling. If you can select a
 block of text and click the code button, it can't just wrap <code> as
 that's invalid. So you'd need to wrap it in a pre. But you'd probably only
 want that if what's inside the selection is pure unadulterated plain text.
 Otherwise the pre could do some formatting damage.

 If a patch that handles both cases creep in, would you be open to have it
 make it into 3.9?

 As in, when a block is selected, and/remove pre/code, else add/remove
 code.
