The comments are separately stored in bookmark.el bookmarks. I'd briefly
considered also using a fake backend like "@@comment:the annotation
text@@" inline for it specifically for org, but preferred the former due
to the easier sorting/browsing etc.; and I also didn't want to maintain
the state in two places. But if you have better ideas, please tell me.

(If you're talking about markup within the comment text, that's
obviously orthogonal to this)

I'd put up an updated the demo animation with this, if you want to see.
