Thank you for posting the results of your metadata experiments, most informative and helpful.
I checked the cacheExt.xml thinking a xslt stylesheet or jquery parse could be written to extract the values from the

Code:

<text>

element and was surprised to find some old persistent highlights in the

Code:

<deletedMarkups>

element from a book returned to the library. Looks like the old cruft is saved

which is good if such material is needed.
