RO_0000052 inheres in
- add textual definition: a relation between a specifically dependent 
continuant (the dependent) and an independent continuant (the host), in which 
the dependent specifically depends on the host for its existence
- add editor note: A dependent inheres in its host at all times for which the 
dependent exists.
- add example of use: this red color inheres in this apple

RO_0000053 bearer of
- add textual definition: a relation between an independent continuant (the 
host) and a specifically dependent continuant (the dependent), in which the 
dependent specifically depends on the host for its existence
- add editor note: A host exists for at least as long as any of its dependents.
- add example of use: this apple is bearer of this red color

I would suggest not adding the editor note for bearer of, at least not as 
written, since it could confuse more than clarify. For example, that apple 
could turn from red to brown. The phrase 'at least as long as' serves to fix 
the persistence of the host as it pertains to the *stated* dependents, but that 
apple could outlast other (unstated) dependents. Wording to clarify that last 
part seems needed.

Ok, thanks. Is this better?

Revised editor note for 'bearer of': A host can have many dependents, and its 
dependents can exist for different periods of time, but none of its dependents 
can exist when the host does not exist.

Yes, that seems to address it just fine.

Because you are also adding properties for quality of and has quality (as 
subproperties of these), I would suggest also adding and example that does not 
involve a quality. For example, "this fragility inheres in this vase".

Also, I find the use of the word host here strange, because host is often used 
much more specifically in biology. Perhaps you could use the word bearer, as in 
"...the dependent specifically depends on the bearer for its existence...". Is 
this too jargony? It does help users to become more familiar with the "bearer 
of" relation.

Ok. Assembling all the suggestions:

RO_0000052 inheres in
- add textual definition: a relation between a specifically dependent 
continuant (the dependent) and an independent continuant (the bearer), in which 
the dependent specifically depends on the bearer for its existence
- add editor note: A dependent inheres in its bearer at all times for which the 
dependent exists.
- add example of use: this red color inheres in this apple
- add example of use: this fragility inheres in this vase

RO_0000053 bearer of
- add textual definition: a relation between an independent continuant (the 
bearer) and a specifically dependent continuant (the dependent), in which the 
dependent specifically depends on the bearer for its existence
- add editor note: A bearer can have many dependents, and its dependents can 
exist for different periods of time, but none of its dependents can exist when 
the bearer does not exist.
- add example of use: this apple is bearer of this red color
- add example of use: this vase is bearer of this fragility
