[orcmid] 

1. With the file you sent me, I see the colors of the comments exactly the same 
as you have indicated in the cover email.

 2. When I added two comments on my own, on in front of the others, one between 
the original 6th and 7th, I got yellow highlighting, a new color, for my 
comment in both cases and the colors already assigned were not disturbed.

 3. There is no indication of this at all in the ODF for the documents.  There 
is no special style or application of styles in the comments or for the comment 
boxes.  The settings file has nothing about annotations or different users who 
worked on the document.

Your observation that this is all handled in the display code and it is related 
to the user ID (the only thing that changes beside the timestamps) seems to be 
confirmed.

I have no idea how to find that.  I trust others may recall where annotations 
are handled.
