As a followup, there is now a GNOME bugzilla component where you can
file your enhancement requests. I have talked to the developer and filed
the following RFE's primarily based on the discussions here

Import notes from Tomboy on first run:

Need to support add-ons

Autostart on login  (might need to be solved in the spec instead)

Help doesn't work
