I use custom comments quite a lot, I don't use the built in comments because a) metadata downloading can write to the column b) I cant edit them from the spread sheet.
At once stage I was opening some text snippets in notepad++ and then coffee/pasta them into a custom comments column - in that context I was getting some glitches. So I examined what I was really trying to do - which resulted in replacing that comments column with a names, a timestamp and a duration column - a bit more work but also a lot more informative.
I don't do anything too fancy - but the basic formatting works for me, and it appears as I would expect to appear in epub book jackets - which I put at the back of the book via a hacked version of Modify. I don't worry about what the HTML looks like, I'm happy so long as what I get is what I want.
My only wish is to see some of the buttons accessible from the context menu, and a keyboard shortcut to flip between normal and html views.
All I can suggest is to try a custom comments column - I don't think it would be be any different as I think its the same code - but you never know...
