Firstly, thank you very much for providing this plugin; your work is much appreciated. I couldn't believe it when I discovered there was no built-in way of exporting my annotations from non-DRMed documents in the Kindle.

However, I'm hitting a basic stumbling block with setup:

Running Calibre 4.99 on Ubuntu 20.04, with a connected Kindle, from which I am trying to fetch annotations:

1. I select the document that is on the Kindle, click "Annotations" > "Fetch annotations from connected device"
2. I get the error message "Unable to import annotations as the annotations column has not been configured..."
3. To set up the column, I click "Annotations" > "Customize plugin...".
4. Under "Add fetched annotations to", "Comments" is preselected; clicking the custom column wizard icon next to this does nothing, and the icon seems to be greyed out.

Is there some way around this, such as adding the appropriate column manually? One would, presumably need to know the technical requirements for such a column.
