Hidden power and ground pins in schematics?!

I had to modify an older design that was put together years ago.
It seems that all of the power and ground pins on chips were not part of the individual component's schematic model and required opening the component's Properties window and assigning the nets under "SigPins". This is in PADs.
Was this ever a common practice? Sure, it can make the schematic look a little cleaner but if a technician were ever to look at the schematic to diagnose an RMA, how would they know what pins are connected to what rails?
It just seems like a really odd design and dangerous documentation choice. Or am I off-base and this is common?
