Feature request: be more friendly to syncing deamons

Description

Hi, notes are stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME/notes/ whicht defaults to ~/.local/share/notes/

I like to sync my notes over several machines using next-cloud.

Problem: next-cloud stores hidden files in ~/.local/share/notes/ in order to control the syncing. These are interpreted as (empty) notes by the notes-plugin.

Solution - 3 possibilities:

1.) don't interpret hidden files as notes 2.) move the notes to $XDG_DATA_HOME/notes/notes/ i.e. one level deeper so syncing deamons can use the level above 3.) make the storage directory configurable

In case one of these possibilities already exist, I would be grateful for a hint.

Thank you. Regards.
