Im a bit late
I simply want project/track related info. The clip info is neat but, as in other daws, sometimes you need to simply recall eg a track setup

Mic - TLM103
Pre - Sebatron VMP
Pre settings
Pad:0
Eq: Bright
Low Cut: None
Gain: 3.5
Cables - Vovox

I use this as a library recall function and setup eg listen back to a client demo and realise the lead vox is similar to previous job, reference it and away you go...for the non preset type stuff

Im sure you could hack clip info but would be nice to have a simple way to do this...I use Live and Cubase...having notes relative to the entity is simple but effective. In cubase you can attach a pic...eg Mic position or a full panel of a pre as opposed to typing

EDIT: Based on the YT vids I researched...there was no mention of track info...only clips and locations...but there actually is Track info...but the above ability to include graphic info would still be good.
for text-only notes there's MNotepad:

ExtraNotes does text and images, however I've no idea if it still works as the code repository hasn't been updated since 2015:
