UI Enhancements #450

Hi I just found out about your project yesterday. And I really love what you're trying to achieve! It it has all of the elements I was searching for, like being self hosted, encrypted and the ability to sync with dropbox.

But the UI is really messing with my head. I find it hard to navigate and I have to use multiple clicks to achieve what I want.

So I hope you don't mind I came up with a mock-up in Photoshop to illustrate what (in my opinion) could help this issue.

I'm trying to work faster with the software and fast navigation is a must for me.

Another thing that would be awesome to see was some sort of hierarchy like Notebook, pages (sort of like one note, but not really). And then the actual notes. So if the notebook was Travel, I would have pages called photos, location, restaurants, museums and then the actual notes with the content. If it makes sense :)

Hope you don't mind the post. Keep up the good work!

Great ideas! Especially I like the ability to pin/unpin the main menu.
