I wasn't able to locate an example (weak google foo i guess), so thanks for providing it. My only mild gripe with this is that the "code" is actually "static" on which the comments are being applied.
For most code bases, the code is bound to evolve and change, so I wonder what the version reconciliation model would look like if there has to be constant syncing between what's on GitHub and what's hosted on genius (how would we capture multiple versions for example). Moreover, it appears that genius is great for annotating lines, but doesn't have the same Q&A feel that Omniref does[1]. I think what would be of real value is having the Q&A hosted "closest" to the codebase which is why I was thinking about a GitHub plugin. This in turn automatically has the ability to reconcile any old/deprecated questions that were relevant when the code was old.
