Subject: Is there ANY way to turn the Annotations Editor OFF?

I have started uploading some videos and every single time that I view
one, for whatever reason, I have to MANUALLY switch off the Annotation
Editor junk that shows up in the lower left corner.

Is there ANY way to turn that off so that NONE of my own videos come
up with that editor?

I can't seem to find ANY way to do that when I'm logged in.

I am doing searches but am having a hard time finding one that
actually matches what options I have under the ACCOUNT area.

If someone would help me out, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

It was a really recent upgrade, so I'm sure they're still working out
the bugs.  I'm just like you it's the most annoying thing in the world
(I'd six star your post if I could), so I'm sure a lot of other people
will complain about it eventually...  Give YouTube the credit that
most things are always going to not work quite right or quite the way
they planned until an idea or site revision has been around for a
little while.  The idea isn't bad, but there just has to be a tiny
little fix: just default it to OFF instead of ON and then if we want
to, we can click the editor on while watching.  It's a very
considerate short cut to stick on actually and would be perfect if it
just didn't automatically turn on.

YouTube Timmy reported back in February that this problem had been
fixed (see http://help.youtube.com/group/youtube-announcements/browse_thread/thr...
in the announcements section), so I think this has moved out of the
"recent upgrade" category.  I'd go a step further: I don't ever use
annotations, so I'd like the option of disabling the annotation editor
globally, for all my videos, past and future, so that I'd never have
to deal with this issue again.
