@christophnoack:  The mockups are fine and are similar to but better than the
Word equivalent.  

I don't think the alternative of Notes embedded in a bulleted list are a problem
-- can't they just take on the formatting of the paragraph in which they are
embeded?  Do they have to be treated as a new para between the host text paras?

W.r.t. to overlong notes, or many notes on a page, perhaps several from
different reviewers pointing to the same para, may I suggest that you
temporarily increase the para spacing or line spacing to keep the referred-to
text in close proximity to the referring note.

I do not like the idea of repeating a page referred to be notes of greater
length than the page.  The reviewer may consider that the writer has
accidentally copied and pasted the same page twice.  Or a reviewer may see the
first presentation and consider that the associated note is the only one for
that page.

I don't think that there is any particular necessity to preserve the page
formatting next to the notes.  After all, this is only for review DRAFT, not for
final presentation.  Anything that keeps the notes in lockstep with the host
text is to be explored.

If pages are reflowed to accommodate Notes, you could insert a bar to indicate
where the page breaks are.  In fact, you could use something like Word's Normal
flow where page-by-page formatting is lost, and the whole document is like an
enormously long web page.
