I am now implementing comments in ODF using annotations. This works well,

Also, ODF annotations keep track of the author and a timestamp. Would it
be possible to e.g. map the content of the comment to something that
can be used ?
The single line comments are implemented as block macros which are not
multi-line. The easiest solution would be to define a delimited comment block
that generates output. The current delimited comment block does not generate
output, which is very useful, but not what you want.
I feared this was the case, however I clearly see a benefit of having
normal multi-line comments be processed in blocks.
For example, it would be easy to implement a 'comment' style listing block:
[comment,dag,2011-12-03]
---------------------------------------------------------
FIXME: Insert the various features from the Release Notes
include the information from the presentations
---------------------------------------------------------
It would be very useful to have this, not just for the ODF plugin. Because
if we only add stuff to AsciiDoc for the ODF backend, then I think we all
loose :-/
However I would prefer to see multiline comments handled better, as this
is what most people would expect and integrates well with eg. color
highlighting in vim. The comment style listing block looks much more as
if it is part of the content.
