There isn't: I'll have to learn the details of how annotations are implemented in each format first.

There isn't but it shouldn't be too hard to implement: just like the TOC, the annotations could be turned into an in-memory HTML document. In-memory documents (e.g.
System Info) can be saved.

You'd have to rely on
.metadata.json and
.reading-states/*.json.

Not exactly (see above).

I'll look into it.

Multi-line input fields are planned.

The current behavior, which was introduced in response to
#72, is to discard the input when tapping outside of the keyboard and input field. Maybe it would make more sense to only close empty input fields?
Would it be less confusing if the keyboard had
Validate and
Cancel keys?

It eventually froze my Kobo (Libra H2O running Plato 0.9.6) as I continue my reading, highlights and annotation. I had to reboot thrice for reading and noting sparingly a PDF of just 19 pages. :-/

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce.

For now, there's just a
Settings.toml.
