Export Color Highlights

Question

I own a Kobo Clara Colour, and I tend to use multiple colors when highlighting my books, and I've yet to find a way to export highlights and keep the color.

I used to read books directly on the Libby app on an ipad, and one thing I liked about that was being able to export highlights as a csv file which also included the color of the highlight and a timestamp.

I know of that hack to enable exporting highlights, but it's very basic, it only shows the text and the notes. It does the most basic job, but I'm wondering if there's a way to export highlights in a manner that's closer to Libby, especially for borrowed and side loaded books.

If anyone knows of a way to do this, please let me know, I'd greatly appreciate it.
