User reviews
I really would have loved this as it seems so well put together, clean, and thought out except for on flaw. Yes, it does create notes for a page, however those notes do not show up on the page at all. In fact there is nothing to let make you aware that you ever did create a note on a page. Instead you have to click on the extension and then you will see your note. So, unless you remember you've made a notation to a page somewhere, or refer to notes made in the past within the extension itself and then revisit a page from there, you have no idea if you've done so. Its a bit unrealistic to expect people to remember they've created notes on websites/pages should they go back to them if there is no visible sign that you've done ever done so.
Aside from that major flaw, the only other aspect I would add would be to allow for the add-on to be accessed through the contextual menu rather than having to click on a pinned icon in the toolbar.

In my Ubuntu + iBus + Firefox, Korean input is broken and only English can be typed, but this add-on is really practical. I recommend it!

So this is nice! But Can we have the option in the settings to move the notes to the sidebar so that it can stay open while we are browsing?
