Oh you can't edit responses? Oops. Sorry. Let me add...

At least without going through some entirely non-obvious dance that isn't, as
you say, required for ODT documents.

When I say that the "X-ed state isn't being preserved across saves", what I
mean, though perhaps I wasn't clear, is that I made an effort to remove the
comment, the application displayed a behavior consistent with at least some
kind of process toward removal, and then after closing and opening the
document, my action has obviously not been followed because not only is the
comment still there but now the X is gone too.
