Thanks. Remind me if you can if we (1) had plans to allow non-blob objects as notes, or (2) actively support to have non-text blob objects as notes. I _think_ we do assume people may try to add non-text blob as notes (while they accept that they cannot merge two such notes on the same object), but I do not recall if we planned to allow them to store trees and commits.
