I notice that the contribution notes field is not available to profiles or the contrib search. Any particular reason why that field would be unavailable? It can serve an important purpose for managing contrib records, and would be useful in both tools.

a contrib can have multiple notes and hence we dont show it. If we restrict it to one contrib / one note, exposing it would be easier

the db structure will accommodate multiple notes, but the interface doesn't (unless i'm missing something). the interface limits one note per contribution record. so unless there's some other place where a second note could be inserted, i think we're safe exposing it.
