Hmm, turns out I'm not crazy after all.
I just discovered that tomboy does implement note:// urls, which can
be opened even with xdg-open.

To have a try, run:
import dbus
bus = dbus.SessionBus()
obj = bus.get_object("org.gnome.Tomboy", "/org/gnome/Tomboy/RemoteControl")
tomboy = dbus.Interface(obj, "org.gnome.Tomboy.RemoteControl")
tomboy.ListAllNotes()
