Yes, I failed to fully read the instructions you sent, or understand them. That's what users do -- they don't read your instructions, and they misunderstand them. If your UI isn't easily discoverable, users will not be able to use it, and will be frustrated and annoyed. The user is always right, even when they're doing it wrong wink That's right, of course.  I really come to the conclusion that having a text link that "looks like" a link, i.e. is underlined, will have a better UI experience (since we cannot put notes "click bubble to comment" everywhere). Please don't make comment bubbles more visible. Doing so will only decrease signal to noise ratio. I think a little bit of a learning barrier is a good thing: it will keep down the number of "Bart was here" comments.
