I understand the part about different annotation styles and accessability. Would it also be possible that the annotation plugins have a template for users to paste in their highlights? By providing a template for user to paste in their annotation, its provide the user with an alternatives to import their highlights in my opinion.

The plugin supports importing annotations from files generated from some ereader apps. The list is in the first post of the plugin. Adding other formats is completely possible. It just needs someone to write the code. Supporting pasting from the clipboard is also possible, but, it means that whatever is in the clipboard has to be in an appropriate format. Odd are that means you just cut it from a file that could have been imported. If you are suggesting the plugin has a dialog to past the annotation into that is

Furthermore, rrom what i read (in the annotation plugin thread and the website), I think the current functionality of annotation plugin is great. But what i was looking for is to further integrate the annotation with calibre book by linking the annotated text with the calibre highlights/annotation
So when i export the annotation from calibre annotation browswer, i can have book ID, start CFI, and spine index to create the highlight URI that i can access from another program

It is my intention to extend the Annotations plugin to create calibre annotations. But, that requires time, and enough information in the annotation on the device to make that worthwhile. For Kobo devices, I can get the actual location of the annotation in the book and should be able to translate that to what calibre needs. But, for Kindles there is only a page number or location number. It will be impossible to use these to correctly put the annotations in the book.
