Me too, I was annoyed by this clash of names. My solution,
implemented on 2012-06-24, has been to rename the notes field in the
record structure to Notes. If people on this list prefer `ext' over
`Notes', that's fine with me, too. Under normal circumstances either
choice should be unnoticable for a user. The main implication of
this choice is that for clarity of code `ext' or `Notes' is then
unavailable for an individual notes field.

Votes are welcome!
