You have completely blown my mind. I was thinking about this very
idea about 10 minutes ago in my car, and *blam* there it is. I should
think about some other, more profitable ideas...
I would suggest submitting this as a patch for inclusion. I've heard
there are going to be enhancements to the .annot format in 3.11 so
it's not unprecedented.
