You have completely blown my mind.  I was thinking about this very
idea about 10 minutes ago in my car, and *blam* there it is.  I should
think about some other, more profitable ideas...

I would suggest submitting this as a patch for inclusion.  I've heard
there are going to be enhancements to the .annot format in 3.11 so
it's not unprecedented.
