Notes entered onto a contact, an address, or anything should roll up onto
parent records. I don't think this needs to be done on a hard data-level
(copying the notes), but there should atleast be a stock report that, when
run against a given entity, will show all notes, all notes under activites,
and any related notes under contacts. It's very hard to try to have multiple
people (support, sales, cold-callers) all keep in-sync with their notes about
communication without seeing total visibility.
