> I've coveted Vade Mecum's highlighting and annotation ...

Vade Mecum is GPL, and I imagine he would be pleased if his 
improvements were rolled back into plucker.

See files named "highlights*" and "notes*" at 
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/vade-mecum/vade-mecum/

>From a quick look, the annotations are stored in a (separate)
metadocument, and just list the record+offset that they refer
to.  If you lose the metadocument (or use an older viewer), 
you will lose the annotations, but the document itself will 
be fine.

How does Vade Mecum make annotions in the first place?  Can you
do this on the PDA, does it need to happen before hotsync?

Viewer changes alone would let you use current Vade-Mecum annotated
documents.  If they're made, I am willing update the python parser to
produce annotation files, but ...

I think it might make more sense to allow inter-document links 
in general (possibly with this as a special case), and to allow
at least minor editing in general if we put the functionality 
in for notes.  (If we don't put it in, then I suppose you can
already edit the source on your desktop.)
