Even with changing the type to Note? I would have expected that it decides the way to save by looking at the type, but that is apparently wrong. Also the class doesn't seem to be the deciding factor. So what is? It seems that every class decides for itself. We could perhaps include the rest of the text by creating a wrapper around -contents, and use that everywhere. In anchored notes it would hold the text in the textfield, while the contents is set to the full string, created from both texts. It would require a fair bit of find&replace though.
