Personally, I hate paper... and thus post-it-notes... and even more so
digital translations of post-it-notes.

Indeed; If it's there, SX can make use of... but the reminders I'm planning
will not expect this [I'm thinking seperate window].

There's also been some call to have SX-related reminders appear in
existing/external todo-lists [think Evo]... this is relatively low on my
priority list ATM, but I can be convinced...
