In these cases I have done

i)    integral to membrane ISS TMM:whatever_its_called
ii)    plasma membrane IDA
iii)    integral to plasma membrane IC from GO:0016021|GO:0005886 (you 
can put pipe separated GO ids in the "from" column, this was added 
purely for this type of annotation.

Its a bit clunky but at least you can pull the different annotation 
sources apart..
