I find it somewhat unnerving that this series is a bit overengineered to have fancier and facier handling of notes, while at the same time still sticking to the "only one default notes tree" mode of operation. Are you digging a deep hole that you will find hard to get out of when you finally need to support copying/rewriting notes from multiple trees at the same time?
