Sounds like a good plan.  If the message does move to stderr, there 
are also a few tests in 3310 that need adjusted.  They presume an 
error message from `git notes merge`, but they only redirect stdout to 
the output file.

While I was bored, I prepared a commit with these changes and 
confirmed the test suite passes, in case we get an ACK from Johan.
