Bug Description
To use Zim as a novel-writing tool, an awesome feature would be a simpler version of this: http://
Basically, it would be an extra textbox that sits in (for example) the bottom pane. It could be plain text, similar to the 'scene description' box in yWriter. The main use of it for writers would be to add a small 'scene synopsis' and/or general notes on required edits.
(Bonus feature: the ability to export the notes for an entire chapter into a single html document?)

Attached a plugin that will add a simple text buffer to the side pane. Stores the note as a text file attachment.
- Supports autosave, but not as robust as the main buffer (did not check error handling etc)
- No formatting support in this buffer --> need substantial work to make that possible
- No integration for search / find / etc.
Please report bugs in this plugin in comments below.
To install drop this file in "zim/plugins" source folder and restart zim, enable from preferences dialog.
