David, a couple of questions about using the plugin with larger ebooks:

1. If you need to import annotations on a book a second time (because you added more annotations after your first import to Calibre), I assume the best way to handle that is 'delete' all the existing annotations from the details view in the book, and then run import again?

2. This one is weird, a special case question. :-) Say that you have a book that you read a LOT, it's huge, you add annotations all over the place. And then you want to transfer the book, with the on-device annotations, to another Kobo device or app. Is there a way to do that (even as a manual hack) with a sideloaded book not purchased from Kobo? (I realize the simplest solution would be: if you want to read the book with notes on multiple Kobo devices that bad, just buy the book from Kobo in the first place. Problem is, I already owned some of the books that I want to do this with before I discovered Kobo devices :-) ).
*ETA: I see how you do item 2, it's basically munge the book and annotations data from the KoboReader.sqllite db file on the device, and move it onto another Kobo device. Here's an older thread how one user did it: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=312974
