   It makes grep slightly faster.  It also decreases my mental barrier
   for casual note taking; I might feel MOTTAINAI for creating too many
   files otherwise.

What does "MOTTAINAI" mean ? Two other questions:

1. do you know what are your users habits ? Maybe it would be
preferable to set the "one file per day" model as the default one
?

2. in the "one file per day" style, how does howm know there are
several notes per file ? Maybe I should also try to follow your
way to do since I am creating almost 10 files a day currently.

Regards,
