Hi Eric,
I added some functions in the attachment. they colorize the comments,
add an org-comment menu to the org-menu, and some functions for pop to
and delete comments from the list mode, and a hydra for commands to
insert comments. Do you want to get this up on github to facilitate
developing it?
