Title:
  Tomboy sync should not freeze note window

Status in Tomboy:
  Unknown
Status in tomboy package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  You can call it a bug, a design flaw, or even a feature request. But
  the window freeze on sync can be really annoying.

  When your notes are synced, any open notes become locked until the
  sync is complete. I think this is by design, to prevent a sync from
  going bad. (Is that even possible?) But, especially when the network
  is slow or the server is rather busy, the notes are locked for
  annoying long periods of time.(Every %d minutes sync interval.)

  I suggest, if this lock is necessary at all, that the synchronization
  functionality creates temporary copies of notes to sync in the
  background, so you can continue using your notes while sync is
  happening.

  (Ubuntu 11.04 Tomboy 1.6.0)
