Of course this is confusing - it should be the other way round:
`notes' should represent all note fields, and `note' should be an
individual one. But this fails because there is also a notes field
`notes'. This is a historical inconsistency that cannot be changed
unless one wants to rename everybody's BBDB records.

 Can you drop any hints about how it will change? Extra arguments?

 I didn't want to do anything fancy. Yet if the field argument
 doesn't match anything what it is supposed to match now, the new
 code also tries to match the keys of individual note fields. So if
 the value of field is 'note, it returns a list of all note fields.
 If the value is 'notes, it returns the value of the 'notes field.

Okay, it sounds like this is different enough to warrant me waiting on
it. In the meantime, if you have any clever ideas about the string
format/templating side of things, don't be shy!
