Notes (annotation) are permanently visible, I don't think that you are suggesting this?! If your point is that - the quickhelp popups for input fields should be replaced by something nicer - this "something" should be visible when the user edits the field I agree. And something from the "notes2" could be a good candidate for this. But don't expect this in 3.0. I will be lucky if we get the new notes and input fields in 3.0, they both are still not finished and the feature freeze in march comes nearer and nearer ...
