 * Hi,
 * Is it possible to disable the private note functionality completely or for certain
   users? I want the dashboard note box to appear ONLY when the user has the capability
   to add general notes. If the user doesn’t, then the box should be hidden because
   it is of no use, considering that the private note functionality is disabled.
 * May be the enabling/disabling of functionality can be simplified by implementing
   them as WordPress capabilites so that we can simply enable/disable them using
   plugins such as Advanced Access Manager.
 * Thanks
