Well, I am sure of very few things,..:-) and as I get older of less
things :-)....but do not get me too seriously.. 

No, I am not sure.. but still think it may be a good idea.

I agree with you that it is improbable (and rather silly) to take notes while
watching stars, but is not so improbable to look at the calendar, use the
calculator or even a python console (I use it for mathematical operations).
It is also improbable to browse Internet but KStars includes the possibilty
to do so. Who knows if you would like to connect to Internet using a WiFi card 
or a GSM phone?. In the wilderness this is improbable, but you may watch the 
stars close to an observatory with internet connection. Of course Internet 
pages do not have a night vision mode, but perhaps you just want to download 
a FITs image.... There are possibilities....

Another issue is if it is worth the effort or the priority is low... but I
still think it is a good idea.
