Create Word Comments via Office API

Hi,

Could you add functionality to create Word comments via the Office API?

I know have a proof of concept, named Feedback+, in the store where we create comments into a word document. But this has a bug. It creates a paragraph everytime someone creates a comment in the document.

Thanks,

As the latest update was of November 2016, is there any update on improved support for adding comments?

Is it just me or is the extra paragraph bug solved?

Been having the same issue, only finding a similar solution with the same shortcoming: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36892507/insert-comment-in-word-using-office-js

Built in functionality for comments would be nice, or atleast avoiding the paragraph break.

I suggest you ...
