I suggest that notes be shown when hovering over ship in the Starship/Planetary Interface Pane
Currently, if you mouseover a ship, then you'll see info about the ship, but Notes are not shown. It would be good if the mouseover also showed the Notes, since this allows you to review notes at-a-glance for the ship that you're currently interested in.
I know that you can click the Notes button, but this opens up a pane that needs to be closed after you've looked at the note (which is really just a fiddly bit of extra clicking). That's two clicks for each set of ship notes that you otherwise just want to glance at.
I know that you can mouseover the planet on the starmap, which shows info for the planet and ships, and all their respective notes. However, this can often be a long list that makes it harder to pick out the ship for which you're trying to find the note.
Whilst we're at it, may as well show Notes when mouseover the planet/starbase. Simply another convenience, as when mouseover a ship.
One more thing, since some people might be using low-resolution displays, this might bloat their display, so have this functionality be a toggle in the options.
