Question: I am trying to edit this so that 'comments' type columns are also a valid choice for the reading position column. (Just as a matter of preference; I find that title-type longtext columns more suitable for things like this.

In dialogs.py, lines 925-927:

    def get_text_type_custom_columns(self):
        column_types = ['text']
        return self.get_custom_columns(column_types)

config.py, lines 357-364:

CUSTOM_COLUMN_DEFAULTS = {
                CUSTOM_COLUMN_DEFAULT_LOOKUP_READING_LOCATION : {
                    'column_heading': _("Kobo Reading Location"),
                    'datatype' : 'text',
                    'description' : _("Kobo Reading location from the device."),
                    'columns_list' : 'avail_text_columns',
                    'config_label' : _('Current Reading Location Column:'),
                    'config_tool_tip' : _("Select a custom column to store the current reading location. The column type must be 'text'.  Leave this blank if you do not want to store or restore the current reading location."),

866-868:

    def get_text_custom_columns(self):
        column_types = ['text']
        return self.get_custom_columns(column_types)

The GetFileName plugin uses ['text','enumeration','custom','comments'] so thought that'd work. But changing the instances of 'text' to 'text,comments' just results in an empty column selection dialog in the configuration. It also happens with just 'comments'



What did I do wrong?
