Would a marginalia be considered an annotation?
In textbooks a (somewhat) common layout is to divide the page into two
columns (65%,35%?) where the inside columns contain the full text and the
outside columns contain a paragraph-by-paragraph summary. A while back
Norm described this as marginalia,
+1.
A very common (page based) annotation placement.
Oft commented on, found in works, hence some readers almost
expect it.
A very welcome addition IMO.
