A "notes" page

(I've looked for and couldn't find it so...)
I'd like to request a "notes" page, a simple way to write down notes relating to the show, almost like a scratch pad. That way if other programmers are coming to work on a show (a very common occurrence on feature films with 1st Unit, 2nd Unit, Bluescreen, Miniature units etc.) notes regarding the show such as parked channels, changes in effects, etc. would be saved all in one tidy place. In fact, it would be even more cool if those notes could be attached to the comment cell in the cuelist, for a sort of Pig+click to open.
Not like you guys have anything else to do...

    So, to summarize what everyone wants (along with a few ideas of my own):

    1) A main note scratch pad for editing and storing notes.

    2) The ability to associate notes with cues and directory items, hopefully with an icon indication that a note exists and a right-click menu for managing it.

    3) The ability to open a note in a window that can be sized, moved, and recorded into views.

    4) The ability to adjust the transparency of the note window, or possibly just set a transparent background so you only see text and a window control handle.

    5) The ability to open and close the note window from a comment macro.

    6) The ability to have some events (like parking a fixture) automatically create a note.

    Let me know if you think this is an accurate summary or if I've missed anything.

    Thanks.
