Bug Description

The Notes tab of the properties dialog has gone away some time between Lucid and Precise. The decoration indicating a note exists is still present suggesting the feature has not been intentionally dropped. Further examination shows that emblems have also disappeared (this appears to be intentional http://ubuntuguide.net/add-emblems-to-nautilus-files-folders-in-ubuntu-12-04-11-10 and is no great loss).

I would expect the notes tabs to be present in the properties dialog or some other obvious way to read already existing notes (and preferably be able to edit them).
