Yup, I also like the new noting, but also think the option should be
there to unnote something.  Also, you can "add a note" to other items,
but can't "add a note" to previously noted items.  And also, when you
note youtube videos the video itself doesn't get noted! (at least the
one i tried - meanwhile, when you note a video from google video
search, the video does get noted, but automatically starts to play
when you go to the notes page, which is a bit annoying!).  Whatever,
still a great new feature, thanks.
