BBEdit version 8.7 released
BBEdit 8.7, the latest version of the triple-A HTML editor, has been released.
Update: OK, so the reason I originally thought that all the "new" 8.7 features sounded familiar is because I actually was looking at the release list for version 8.5. The 8.7 release notice is here, and it includes Lua programming support, an option to remember which documents and browsers are open after closing BBEdit, and a Python language module and lots of other fixes and improvements. Sorry about the mistake, and thanks to all our commenters (and to Bare Bones Software themselves) for the heads up.
8.7 is a free update for 8.5 and 8.6 customers. If you haven't picked up BBEdit yet, you can try out the free demo here.

The new feature list on Bare Bones's site seems to be from 8.5 or 8.6, not 8.7. I've been using BBEdit for a long, long time. And yes, code folding has been in there for at least over a year or two.
The real changelog is found through a link further down the page. Big changes in the File Groups (but it's still a little confusing).
