--- Comment #6 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel at t-online.de> ---
I think, it would be a good new feature. It would be especially useful, when
reading documents on small devices or in webview. Those, who develop for
Android or Browser, should have a look at this request too.

I see this feature in Word. But there it is badly implemented, because the
remark, which indicates, that there is a comment, affects the layout.

I see this feature in TextMarker too. Its implementation idea to highlight the
area, on which the comment is set, is better than the solution of Word. Besides
that it uses thin brackets to indicate that a comment exists. But the
implementation has some problems, when the comment is not set to a range but at
a single spot. TextMarker has the ability to easily switch between showing the
comment at the right edge of the document or showing the comment as popup.

I see this feature in KingSoft too. There you can decide between showing only
the popup or show both popup and comment text in margin. The range on which the
comment is set is enclosed in thin brackets and works too, if the comment is
set at a single spot. Switching the modi is inconvenient in KingSoft.

So to sum it up, I support this request. But it needs a careful design.
