Default Comments not anchored to cells

Hello!

Seems no matter what I try, I can't get comments to remain anchored within a
reasonable distance to their respective cells.

If I insert a comment in a cell and then enter it to edit, it will be
attached to the cell by a relatively short "umbilical cord". If I then insert
rows or columns and enter the comment to edit it subsequently, the "umbilical
cord" and comment will move away from the cell some varying distance. I can
drag it back again, but next time I insert rows or columns again, the problem
will reoccur.

This is a problem only while editing the comment (the comment displays just
fine while the cursor is positioned in the cell.)

Both the "Move and size with cells" and "Move but don't size with cells"
properties seem to allow the greatest migration of the comment away from it's
cell; the "Don't move or size with cells" property keeps it a little closer
to home, but still allows it to stray.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Chris
