On the issue of scrolling the pdf, what if a special-key-and-arrow in the notes pane were to cause scrolling/selecting in the pdf pane? In playing with my notes pane just now I don't recognize any function that control-arrow, command-arrow, or control-command-arrow are assigned to. They seem to be unmodified functionally. If one of those combinations were to be given the same functionality as a double-click on the page number in the notes pane (scrolls and selects the note within the pdf), it would give the effect that I'm suggesting. It seems that it would be unobtrusive with respect to the problems you've mentioned, since you would have to intentionally browse with the modified arrows to have the effect.
