Textareas can have text dropped on them from any source. Make use of  
this to create sidebar drop targets, and/or a Horde_block that can be  
put in the portal or anywhere, that accepts dropped text to quickly  
create notes, tasks, bookmarks (for URLs), etc.

I can see having a single target that lets you pick what kind of item  
to create (maybe on hover, or a prompt after dropping), or having  
multiple targets (drop here to create a bookmark, here to create a  
note, etc.).
