Random thought wrt live top annotation: instead of resurrecting in the
previous form, which could be a bit intrusive display space wise, what
do you think of this idea?

Provide a kbd input snapshot trigger which builds a perf record (hard?)
compatible file for the symbols being displayed. Start a background
task to annotate the lot, stuffing annotate output into an output file.

Better ideas highly welcome.
