Very well made add-on. Thanks! Would be 6 star if there was
1. option to show 1st line/all of annotated texts in the sidebar jump list as alternatives to hover tips,
2. keyboard shortcut to open/toggle the sidebar.
NOTE:
You may need to close then re-open the sidebar, then switch tabs then back to update/repopulate the sidebar after annotating. ?
Notes do NOT disappear when the tab is closed, as review below claims. They stay, can be expanded, and the tab can be re-opened by right-click on the URL.
Would be useful (but not essential):
3. jump to open tab instead of opening a duplicate, as per previous review. (You can use switch tabs or Fast Tab Switcher add-on)
4. drop-down showing the annotation shortcuts.

It does what is essential for annotation work:
1. a note is placed at a position I control
2. the note header is collected in a side window that aggregates all notes from whatever windows and tabs, in particular allowing to jump to a page with the note in front of your eyes.
I only miss a jump to an opened tab.
Thanks for a neat functional piece of software!
