Description
Displaying sys_notes records above the data records in page and list module would be much better so editors actually would be able to see them. currently they're being displayed at the very bottom.
default could still be like it's now, but there should be the posibility to decide (maybot not as a user but as an admin) where those notes should be displayed. perhaps even more visually highlighted.

I agree with having the notes on top would be more logical. We could also use the flash messages here. Also, I wouldn't provide a configuration option for that...

This is request for usability change, and as such it goes through our Usability Team tracker. Some usability expert will give proper feedback. But I like the idea in general of getting the notes on top!

Fine for me, to have them at the top.
How about a column at the right for such notes?

I am expressing a +1 to put the notes on the top and thus, increase visibility for users.
Is it already taken into consideration while re-looking the notes done in another issue? If not, we should make it aware to the developers.

Maybe we should consider a container that can collapse so the notes can be hidden?
Many sys_notes would push the content area down the site, which might not be a nice UX?

Are sys notes going to be so long? In my use case, sys notes were something rather short to communicate other users something about the page / content. If it is becoming too long, I would wonder if sys notes are the right tool. just a first reaction.

I would agree with Fabien here.
SysNotes are small Notes and we shouldn't worry about this worst case here.

+1
as future feature we could add an extra RTE field to the sys_note that'll only show up when a user decides to have a closer look into a sys_note that is only showing the short teaser-like text at first.
