Notes on all types of objects.
The notes module implements a simple CRUD interface where users can post notes, small comment texts that refer to other objects in the system, for example users or items.
See API Guide
The module declares the usual permission bits for the CRUD operations, but it also makes use of the DesiredPermissions feature, using one wildcard pattern 'notes.domains.*' for all endpoints. The idea is that each UI module that makes use of notes, will have to decide on a name for its domain (for example 'items') and use that on all notes they operate on. They should also define a permission set that includes the 'notes.domains.items' permission in some permission set, and enable that for the users who will have access to the permissions on that domain, together with the CRUD permissions telling what kind of operations the user is allowed to perform.
There is also an overall permission 'notes.domains.all' that grants permission to all possible domains.
The way this is designed, the notes module does not need to know or care about which domains we end up having in the system. Unfortunately it requires mod-permissions to support wildcards in the DesiredPermissions, which it does not quite do yet.
