Sure. I also use the "lot note" to track wash sale adjustments to the cost
basis, and when I want to (personally) track a an option rollover, since to me
it's the continuation of an ongoing position but to my broker it's not. So I
might have:
(387437466,W$128.99/364736412)
I.e., this lot was opened in transaction 387437466, but its cost basis was
adjusted due to a wash sale in transaction 364736412.
Since the contents of the lot note are entirely free form, you can afterwards
process this to create your own "audit trail" of a particular instrument,
without having to use a specially named account or anything.
