Hypertext doesn't seem as much a free expanse when you have to start
designing a usable page of it; then it becomes dissapointingly
reminiscient of paper. :-)
Not, of course, that our inability to conceive of how to make it
useful should necessarily exclude a feature like this, but does
anyone have a suggestion on how to make nested annotations/citations
easily readable and usable, and solve the issue of how to number them?
