Changing the location of annotations

It would be a great idea to add the ability to move annotations (сhanging the place). Right now, they’re fixed in place and can overlap other elements. And you cannot change it.
What I mean is the ability to reposition an annotation freely while keeping the link to the target object intact.
Annotations are a really useful feature—thank you! Previously, I had to create similar functionality using my own objects.
 

Please do not move this offer to another discussion. 🙏
Can we move the Figma Annotations (in dev mode) from one Figma project to another?
These are different questions.

Hey All, thank you for continuing to chime in here! 

I’ve moved most of your replies and +1 feedback from this topic into this similar, existing one with more engagement within the Community. To be transparent, there is no exact timeline I can provide on when or if this will be implemented, but I’ll do my best to advocate on your behalf. 

We appreciate your honest feedback. My team here on the forum will ensure it stays compiled here, so the team can easily reference it, when considering their future roadmap.

Omg, yessssss!!!! 100%!!!! Fixed annotations are driving me crazy, they always get in the way. They would be perfect if this was fixed.
