Add comments part

[BrentFarese]

Feature Request:

ECMA Office Open XML Part 1 - Section 11.3.2 specifies a Comments Part for Word documents. Section 17.13 also outlines Annotations including Comments at Section 17.13.4. I cannot find detailed reference to the comments part on officeopenxml.com, which is somewhat weird.

In any case, it would be great if DOCX had comment support so we could build comments into a document. Is this a highly-requested feature? We might be able to dedicate some resources to trying to implement it.

Thanks!

Some snippets from the ECMA spec:

Would love to have that feature, too. Here are the references from the Microsoft API References. They usually also provide a few examples. It seems that commentReference, comments/ comment, commentRangeStart and commentRangeEnd are needed.
