I very much agree on that. Notes is the most valuable feedback method
for non mappers.

Yes please - We had the very same issue with Skobbler - People played
around with the map and accidentally opened Bugs/Notes by accident.
This happens - no reason to complain. We should improve the Apps
to guide people through to some extend and help them to improve
the notes context.
I find the way the "StreetComplete" app does it very intuitive and a
very good example on how to do it right.
Show people intuitive images on what they like to report - make it
a decision tree for the top 20 most often reported issues and only
after somebody reaches the end of the decision tree let them write
a text. Offer to create an OSM account to get into feedback
loop concerning their bugs.
