Looks like things are moving along quickly!
Some comments:
Yellow marker page:
1) "Yellow marker" - I would call this "Margin notes" on the tab.
2) Setting the range is clever and works nicely. However, the auto-title thing is a bit long. Also, I don't think people would necessarily want to put in their own title. I think it would be better if the annotations were auto-numbered, with the autonumber showing up in the text like a footnote reference does, though this might cause a problem for the next issue...
3) ...which is that the annotations are listed in the order they are made. This is difficult for a reader to understand as they would expect the annotation to be parallel with the section it is annotating. Need some kind of Java collapsible thingy?
4) I like being able to comment on the annotation, using Drupal's normal commenting thing. Excellent. This means a whole discussion over someone's annotation is possible.
5) Nothing actually turns yellow. Is it supposed to yet?
6) I get a lot of this: "from /DIV[0]/DIV[0]/DIV[5]/DIV[0]/UL[3]/LI[0]:0 to /DIV[0]/DIV[0]/DIV[5]/DIV[0]/UL[3]/LI[0]" which I think is confusing and messy. Can it be done by line numbers or paragraph references instead? I'm not sure how/if line numbers would work with tableless themes where windows are automatically resized...
7) I attach a screenshot with some of these notes on as well
Nice work!

clemens.tolboomThanks for you time invested into annotate_ym.
However I've postponed the development in favour of annotate_bl which is much more browser independant to build that annotate_ym.
annotate_ym one needs the DOM tree text parts inclusive.
annotate_bl can be done with jquery alone which is core to drupal.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards,
Clemens
