allow notes to be attached to controls
Allow free-form text notes to be attached to particular controls, and printed/viewed in some way. Interesting details how this should work.
For example, are notes attached to a control regardless of course, or to a control in a course, or allow either?
Allow notes attached to other things (course, leg, special item, start, finish)?

This would be useful if you wanted to describe the same feature in different ways on different courses eg Man made object on a harder course, versus "bench", "power pole", play equipment" etc on beginners courses

I did this simply by adding a text note to the control descriptions, below the control. It added minimal clutter to the descriptions and map, and was well received by the competitors.

I might use this feature, if it existed. I just found a tree exploded by lightning, and I wanted to set a control there and call out the lightning strike in the text of the control description.
