The selection modes which are avialable for the Writer document text do not work
in the Notes Windows. Unfortunately, the currently selected selection mode is
kept showing in the status bar if the user changes from document text to Note
Window. This may cause the user to believe that this option is available here.  

Selection modes are currently: STD = Standard mode, EXT = Extension mode, ADD =
Additonal selection mode, BLK = Block selection mode.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new document and insert some text
2. Create a Note and insert some text
3. Go back to document text
4. Change the standard "STD" in statusbar to "ADD"
5. Change to Note Window
6. Try to select multiple portions of text

Expected behavior: Multiple portions of text is selectable in the Note Window.
Current behavior: The statusbar keeps showing "ADD", but the selection behavior
corresponds to "STD".

Proposed behavior: Either the selection modes will work in the Notes too (UX
recommendation), or the user has to be informed about that "missing feature"
(e.g. deactivation of status bar element showing the selection mode).

Addtional information:
* This behavior does also apply to changing the selection modes by modifier
keys, e.g. CTRL+Selection.
* Use Case: The user may need this functionality to select multiple items in a
task list and afterwards use formatting like bold (for emphasis) or strike
through (for finished tasks).
* User es replied: The need for realizing selection modes in Notes seems rather
low. It should be suitable to deactivate the corresponding functionality. (email
