If you sort your notes by date and for example work on a temporary note which you then want to delete, when you right-click to delete on it, it changes position in the meantime and you're not sure if you deleted the right note.

Current deletion message displays "The note was successfully moved to the trash".  
It could be changed to "NoteName was successfully moved to the trash" with the note name clipped to 15 characters to avoid UI overflows.

Would stop the double checking for me. (OCD stuff)
