This seems more like an OS behavior
than a Rev problem doesn't it?
It sure should be made aware for those

if it should or not be enabled...
Hi Bob,
I woudn't worry too much about webnotes for the moment. If anyone
wants to add a comment on top of your webnotes, your webnotes will
be replaced.
I hope they get that situation under control next release.
