I wrote it, and I don't use it that much. I do use it for quick
notes-to-self when writing, but footnotes do the job just as well.

It's a huge problem, and one that org-annotate isn't going to solve. I
do a lot of manuscript editing, and passing files around, and have only
barely gotten some people to accept my "weird" workflow, which is to
send them a clean version of an edited file, and along with that an HTML
file containing htmlized word-diff output, where the insertions and
deletions are colorized. They make further edits on the clean copy, and
I do another go-around. It's a huge pain.

I wish there were better solutions out there!
