I would really like to read some information about this, as I have found it
a major problem to distinguish 'margin notes' from the original text  of
something that I have read with approval, and put aside for later
reference.

Clearly copyright can become a problem, but so is fairness in citing
contributions to discussion lists and original authors of ideas that get
communicated by email.
