I dont doubt that but FWIW when it comes to adding Tracker to gnome 
2.18, I would like notes to be added as a first class object and stored 
in Tracker's DB. Tracker already makes it easy to add tagging, 
extensible metadata and linking to other objects so adding such support 
to sticky notes (and Tomboy too if maintainer allows) is one way of 
improving things in that regard. Im not commiting myself to fixing all 
your gripes in sticky notes just giving it a bit of tracker power that 
will hopefully make them more manageable and powerful.
