Feature request: Pin to desktop #104

What I mean by "pin to desktop" is :
Currently, when Show Desktop is clicked, the notes are hidden along with the rest of the windows.
In the old "sticky" cinnamon applet, the notes stayed on the desktop when "show desktop" was clicked or on startup.
I think it would be really good if this option existed in the new app!

Note: it's possible this feature exists but I simply haven't found it?
It might be doable by adding an exception for the notes to the "show desktop" applet instead (which is also not a feature that exists yet)

I have the same issue.

You can achieve this by pressing alt+space and then selecting "always on top".

That doesn't solve the problem - it makes it worse. With your suggestion, yes, the note doesn't go away when "show desktop" is selected, but instead, the note is always on top of everything on screen including other windows, which it should never be over the top of. I think what is being requested here is something in between. I believe what's being asked for is the ability to keep the note displayed on the desktop itself, without going away when "show desktop" is used, but also without it being on top of other windows. I'm guessing that it really needs to be a part of the desktop itself in order to accomplish that, which is why desklets might be the better way to go, in my opinion.
