If I have understood you correctly a.-d. formulate your need for a search bar. I believe NoteKit actually offers a very primitive search bar that allows you to look for strings in your current document. Since NoteKit just saves it's notes to your filesystem you can use g/re/p to do search for anything more complex far better than any integrated solution could ever be. But you'd have to figure out how to run grep on your Windows machine, since I doubt they'll ship it by default.

Again, your notes are just files stored in ~/.local/share/notekit on OSX and GNU/Linux and /notesbase/ on Windows or when development mode is enabled. You can just copy your Markdown files there (the same for txt, then just change the file extension to .md).
