Editing Modes

Strategies to ensure we don't "corrupt" formatting of existing notes that are created with GUI/Web clients.

Different Modes

  • read-only: only read existing notes, don't make any changes to notes or create new notes
  • read-create: read existing notes and create new notes
  • read-create-delete: same as read-create, but also delete any existing note
  • read-create-delete-modify-local: same as read-create-delete, but also modify notes created locally
  • read-create-delete-modify-all: same as read-create-delete but also modify all notes

Protection Mode

Mark notes that are created in other clients as "protected" and warn users before allowing them to modify protected notes
