Executive summary:
Please change dependency for tomboy etc. to:
gnote | tomboy (= 1.6) | zim
I think this is worth considering, even more importantly because gnote
0.8 has a GTK 3 port. That said, gnote will pull the gtkmm packages, and
I haven't checked yet, if other packages are already pulling that in.
If not, we have to weigh that against the mono-* runtime size to be fair.
What would also help to decide this, is some kind of feature matrix for
tomboy and gnote and knowing if there is a smooth upgrade path from
tomboy to gnote.
Btw, one reason, why tomboy is part of gnome, is that in GNOME 3.0 it's
a featured app [2], in 3.2 this is no longer the case.

Bringing the gnote and tomboy maintainers into the loop. Maybe they
have comments on the above.
I understand Tomboy was removed from whatever GNOME recommended thingy
because it has not seen a GTK3 port yet, due to the lack of a
gtk-sharp3. This is in progress and should exist quite soon (when some
bugs in the generator are zapped) so hopefully it will get back there.
The most important feature that Tomboy has over Gnote is online note
syncing that a lot of people use.
I don't see tomboy in gnome-core, only gnome.
And as for speed and lightness, I have never found it lacking.
I don't know how space constrained you are, but the size issues could be
real. You could consider including Banshee so that it isn't only Tomboy
bringing the runtime in. ;-)
Cheers,
