Hey Adam,

I think that would be a good idea!

It does obviously depend on how most people use the highlight feature,
i.e. whether or not most people actually do add text to highlight
annotations. For me, I never even thought about adding text: I highlight
so that I can see the main points and the structure of an argument or
article. If I wanted to write a note, I would just do that, without an
additional highlight.

I would think that people who do want to add text to every one of their
highlight annotations generally highlight fewer text passages compared
to someone like me who uses it like this:

That means that it would save people like me more hassle than it would
add for the other group, and we would have a net positive in usability.

Anyway, thank you for the feedback!
Jakob
