I changed my mind about the "Epic fail"

I'm here to correct my words, I think it's not a real epic fail anymore. Why?
You just have to set the right zoom you're going to use throughout your reading, once you've set it, you can annotate (until you dont change the zoom setting).

But it's completely understandable, even if still not perfect: because if you write underlines alongside the text, and then you perform a zoom-in: how is the ereader supposed to know where to relocate those lines, especially in case you're reading a pdf?? They will have to be splitted, and placed elsewhere = very CPU consuming process to do on every page you annotated, everytime you turn a page and everytime you change your zoom. It would slow down everything.

To make this feature available, there would have to be a built-in space for underlines inside the epub file, so that annotations are not tretaed like an external object from the file

So I changed my idea and I think it's perfectly understandable unless you have a way more powerful cpu /less portable device.
