That is, upon reopening a saved document, the comments are no longer present. I have tested this using the .odt format, and all works correctly. I have not tested other document formats.

DocxAttributeOutput::PostitField(...) needs an implementation, worse since you don't output the comment but a reference to the comment you need to cache those comments ( per document/paragraph ? ) and then dump the comment meta-data into a comments.xml file in the docx zip.

Is the region vs point a difference in Word and OO implementation, or what OOXML and ODF support? If former, seems like another bug should be filed against OO re region comment support, if latter, against ODF. (I did a few quick web searches and did not find any helpful leads to answer my question above; "comment" is not really a helpful term. :-(.)

Is there a patch for 3.4.2 or do we need to wait for 3.5? If the latter, As others have stated, this is a critical DATA LOSS bug and makes LibreOffice unsuitable for a production environment in it's current state.
