suggestion to simplify the note window



Hi,

I have two (relative) difficulties with the current gnote UI: 1. I
have difficulties to grab the header bar to move the window (too many
buttons), and 2. once scrolled past the first line I don't see the
note title anymore.

This is a suggestion to solve these issues, especially by simplifying
the note window UI, and somehow make it even more GNOME 3 alike:

(use monospace font)


  +------------------------------------------------+
  |[<]              NOTE TILE          [Q][T][¤] X |
  |               notebook name                    |
  +------------------------------------------------+
  |  [Q:________________________<x 1 of 4] [^][v]  |
  |------------------------------------------------|
  |                                                |
  |                                                |


Header bar:
     similar to Web UI,
     show both the `NOTE TITLE`,
     and the `notebook name` (or `unfilled`)
     click on `notebook name` will open the notebook menu

[Q] Search button:
     triggers the search bar

[Q:_Search bar:
     similar to gedit search bar
     - Matches: display "n of m" matches
     - Up and Down buttons, rather than next/prev
     - No match: set a red background

[T] Text menu:
    --> all that operates on the content of the note
    --> as it is now, with addition:
    ++ Link to new note
    ++ Insert timestamp

[¤] Note menu:
    --> all that operates on the note as an object
    --> as it is now, with changes:
    ++ Mark as important
    ++ Delete note
    -- Insert timestamp
    ++ Check spelling `Languages` menu


Thoughts?
