That would depend on how good your note was, no? In any case, I was imagining that the action would be displayed subordinate to the note in the same way that the note is shown currently in context mode.
But this is really just a different way of displaying the data that seems to come at essentially no cost (to the user) and has some advantages. For example, in "Notes" mode, the notes might always be visible, whether or not an action was available/completed/etc. It also allows for other ways to sort/group notes that might not be available/would be independent of the views chosen in context or planning mode.
Also, if you could add categories to notes (the analog of a context for an action), that would give you other ways to organize your data. For example, you could have a "Contact" category for notes that contain contact info for colleages, a "Document" category for notes that contain files, etc. Then you could group or show/hide notes in Notes mode in a similar way that you use contexts in context mode.
