It seems indeed to be an alias according to kdepim-runtime 72b7c09d5, but IMO 
we should decide for one as i.e. the kolab resource now uses text/x-
vnd.akonadi.note and application/x-vnd.akonadi.note while the notes resource 
uses application/x-vnd.kde.notes. IMO we should go with text/x-
vnd.akonadi.note as specified in kdepimlibs/akonadi/notes/noteutils.h.
