Will do!

We could introduce a new Neutron tag called <annotatable/> or something 
the like.

Yulup then would install a listener on that tab. Everytime the user 
presses "c" or some other key, and has a non-collapsed text selection, 
the editor would open and the user could add the comment and save.

Alternatively, since the comments are basically plain text, we could 
provide a dumbed down small editor window, which pops up on top of the 
text, and one could enter a comment.

Authentication etc. is handled by our normal means.
