Annotations management
From ACM MM18 review:
Checking somehow if the file is already annotated would probably prevent a lot of possible issues. This may require that the authors upload the annotations to a temporary place (may be local too) rather than having them downloaded immediately.
We could use the browser local storage or IndexdDB API to store locally annotations. To help with uniqueness, keys could be combinations of:
- file names
- resolution
- configuration
This is complementary with being able to import and display annotations (issue #2). Beware though that in some contexts like mechanical turk tasks, we do not want any local caching interference with the task.
