Okay, so you're basically proposing taking this to a much higher level.
I'm totally in favor, in principle, and don't actually care too much
what the actual syntax looks like. I do think it would be important to
specify the text being annotated, so your first example above wouldn't
be too ideal. The others I'd be happy with.
As the veteran of several small projects that have died of mission
creep, I still wouldn't mind keeping org-comments (I do think it should
be renamed org-annotate) as-is, and letting the "real" inline todo
project progress separately.
