   Thank you for your input! We’ve added this to our backlog as something we want to implement. There are many items on the backlog, so we can’t set an exact estimated time for this, but we’ll keep you posted with status updates.

   Thanks!

   Without being able to "change tracking", making changes to OOXML does mark every change as a revision as well. In other words, without this API the following scenario can be seen as bug

   Scenario
   - open document, enable track changes
   - select text, and run code that puts a comment on text without changing the actual text (e.g. using scriptlab via a method that writes the OOXML)
   - text that itself has not been changed is seen as revision

   Also see https://github.com/OfficeDev/office-js/issues/329#event-2022338233

   @david

   > [...] the only way to do so is with a new API.

   Wouldn't it be possible to make OOXML changes to the word/settings.xml file directly?

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