That discussion made me envision a possible UI for this. We create two block types, one called "Text", and the other called "Note". The "Text" type will be for one-off text on the page, while the "Note" type will be a picker for your list of Note artefacts, and maybe also have a link to the standalone artefact page for that Note.
This way we could avoid a lot of tangly UI in the text block config screen, albeit at the cost of a little bit more blocktype clutter.
We were discussing this in this forum thread: https:/ /mahara. org/interaction /forum/ topic.php? id=5647& offset= 0&limit= 10#post24312
