There is a slight problem with your suggestion. .local is a hidden file
so it does not appear in the file list that cherrytree displays.
I moved the gnome directory to a place I could reach but maybe what you
are saying is its name must be tomboy. Any further comments would be
appreciated along with an opinion as whether gnote is on the way ot. I
would just as soon keep using gnote if it is not going to disappear,
