I set this idea aside for a while, but then I had an idea... As it stands now, each Skim note includes a modification date. What if it also included a UUID, or a creation date that never changes?
If one of these were added to the note structure, then they could also be referenced in a URL. In this fashion, a Skim URL could resolve to a specific note. The use case I have in mind is another app reading the Skim notes sidecar file, and generating hyperlinks that could resolve to the same note. Thanks again M.
