Obviously there is no *necessity* for the Presenter console Notes pane to
render slide notes with none of their formatting.  But we do, that is the crux
of it.

The edit shell used for to the notes applies none if the "Notes" presentation
styling at all, nor any applied DF, it just renders the text strings--sometimes
run together (depending on how authored).

Even modifying the "Notes" presentation style, or the "notes format" from the
'Master Notes' view (e.g. setting paragraph to Right aligned) have no
effect--simply put the text runs are rendered to the Notes pane of the
Presenter console with none of the layout when created from the editing mode.

At a minimum -- responding to color, weight, and size of the notes are needed.
But I'd add linebreak and indentation as well.

However, it really seems the "Notes" frame in the Presenter console should be a
WYSIWYG representation and render the notes equivalent to their rendering when
in edit mode.
