afaik notes adds *one* file per namespace in .git/refs/notes/.

gitk picks up any refs/ that are part of the history and shows them along the commit. This gets pretty much crowded given the extremly long ref names that are stored in refs/bzr.

Also the output of 'git show-ref' is pretty much stuffed, while showing only one entry for each notes namespace

In gerenal I'd say refs/ is not really well suited for something that is by definition one2one per commit.

Havin one ref-file with the mapping inside would be more nice in these terms.
