Public bug reported:

I am trying to create unity quicklist using this guide for Tomboy 
http://askubuntu.com/questions/35488/what-custom-launchers-and-unity-quicklists-are-available

Using the man page for Tomboy it says you can open tomboy using tomboy
--open-note [title/url]

This works well when the application is closed. But once it has been
opened, the command will just display the window with the list of notes,
than the particular note. When the command is run from the terminal it
says [ERROR 14:33:43.474] Tomboy is already running. Exiting...

When it would be preferable if it was able to switch to the note passed
in, like other applications like Zim Desktop do.

The result is an inability to make unity quicklists for Tomboy
