I, too, would find this useful and have added it to the Gmail wish list. Until that wish is granted, I have found found a work-around that does the trick.
When ever I want to add a note to an existing email or thread I simply forward the email to myself (without changing the subject) and include any notes or keywords in the body of the forwarded email. Gmail adds the forwarded email to the conversation and you now have your notes regarding a specific email or thread within the conversation making it searchable by your notes. Elegant?, Nope. Functional?, Sure. The folks at Gmail seem to be resisting (OK, maybe resisting is too strong a word, but you get the idea) adding features that would make Gmail function as a lite CRM (customer relations management) app (e.g. you can add labels to email, but not contacts. You can add notes to contacts, but not emails. Hmm?). Perhaps doing this would conflict with their agreement with Salesforce. Just a thought.
