is a (570KB, so not attached) screenshot of a VMware Fusion Windows XP session with Network Monitor 3.4 open; I've 
added a comment to the currently-selected frame.

The UI is the default for NetMon - packet summary pane above two panes, one with packet details and one with the 
comments for the current frame.  The Edit toolbar button pops up a window in which you can edit the comment; Next 
Comment and Previous Comment go through the list of comments.

(And, yes, the title of the comment does describe the contents of the comment, and, yes, I *did* make the entire 
contents of Edward Bulwer-Lytton's "Paul Clifford" be the description field of the comment - it's about a megabyte, so 
it's not going to fit into a pcap-NG comment.  That's the second paragraph, by the way, and it rattles on for rather a 
long time after the infamous first clause....

The Description field in a NetMon comment is stored in RTF, so you can, at least, paste text with all sorts of fonts 
and paragraph types in it.  It's not a required field, unlike the title, so you can just have a one-line comment in the 
title; the title is not rich text, it's just Unicode plain text.)
