While I do agree with Rob about not adding features lightly, I do think that an
<office:annotation> on <draw:page> is rather valuable, since the element /
feature is already in the spec, and as Jos mentioned the feature seems to
be implemented already...

Now, I wouldn't go as far as adding it on each and every element (that's an
ODF Next discussion), but just adding it to <draw:page> would fit nicely in
the presentation improvements of ODF 1.2 (adding tables...)


Best regards
