This makes sense to me, assuming there is a fast(ish) way to reread the comment
on a specific frame from file?
To be sure I am following correctly:
Two boolean flags in frame data - one indicating 'saved comment' one indicating
'unsaved comment' (they might both be set if the user has modified a saved
comment but not yet resaved). Saved comments are not stored in memory (they can
be reread from file). Unsaved comments are stored in a hash table mapping frame
number to string. On file close, we simply check if the hash table is empty
using g_hash_table_size.
