Change annotations author

HI,

First thanks for the good work,

Then, as a scientific articles reviewer, I would very much like to use evince to annotate a scientific paper and send it ot its author. However, the scientific review process has to be anonymous, so I can't do it now since all annotations show my name as annotation author. I could change the annotations' author by and for all but this quickly becomes tedious for large papers. Also, even if I do it, my name still appears in the sidebar when I display the list of annotations, as illustrated in the screenshot below:

Software version: 3.36.7 on Ubuntu 20.04

So I understand that there is currently no way to anonymize annotations (for a scientific review process) a permanently change annotations properties in a way that would remain consistent between each individual annotation and the sidebar's annotation list ?

If this is confirmed I think such a possibility would be a nice new feature,

Best regards Didier
