Adding the GM notes to plots and plot nodes is on the short list for the near term.

Providing full rich text and linking throughout plots is a much bigger task and I'm curious what additional benefits it really provides. The current concept is that plots are great place to summarize things. For more depth of information, the idea is that topics are associated with plot points. Most commonly, either a Storyline or Scene topic would we associated with a given plot point. That's where all the details about it would go, including the ability to have individual elements be revealable and full linking. I'm guessing that the moment we start putting some of that functionality into plot points, we'll start down a slippery slope and ultimately end up having to replicate all that functionality within the context of plot points. That doesn't seem all that productive.

One of the things we want to do is better integrate plot points with scene topics, so maybe that's really the proper solution here. Thoughts???
