There is a bug with changing annotations and bookmarks from the annotations list.

The problem is that if you edit the bookmark/annotation from the Annotations list and then do a "Show on page", the edits are forgotten. If you make the changes and press the x in the corner to close the annotations list, the changes are saved. I discovered this a while ago with 2.0.0 but had only noticed it when trying to delete annotations from the list. I just tried adding or changing the note and it is broken in the same way.

Kobo do know about the problem.

While were talking about changing annotations and highlights, you can do this from the book by pressing on the highlight. The annotation/dictionary bar shows at the bottom and you can change the note, add a not to highlight or delete it from there. This does save the changes correctly. And is faster than through the annotations list. This doesn't work for the dog-ear bookmark. Pressing it only toggles it on and off.
