Doesn't look like a rights grab at all
In most cases I would agree with you, but not here. The state of Bavaria has exercised its copyright for all these years to prevent publication. And while the annotations will be copyrighted, the source text won't, so you can bet it won't be long before people publish editions of that.

So where is the rights grab?
