OK, I can see that working but by changing workspace you lose visibility 
of the job in hand.
My autostart is still there and it does still start on boot, but it then 
ties up a taskbar location when minimised and my taskbar gets cluttered 
enough without it. The tray icon was neat, available and unobtrusive.

The most important question though is:

How do you get to the MRU list?

I suppose by sorting the ALL view in the search window by 'last 
modified' a similar result is obtained, but by no means as convenient.

That extension is a Gnome thing - I don't use Gnome.
"We cannot detect a running copy of GNOME on this system, so some parts 
of the interface may be disabled. See our troubleshooting entry for more 
information."
So I won't go there.

I prefer mouse for almost everything, and I am used to using the X to 
close the gnote windows. Now that closes the application which is most 
frustrating and would take me a very long time to un-learn.

Thanks for your comments - interesting, however it does seem that you 
are jumping through hoops just to try to get back some of the 
functionality that has been removed :\
