Downloading notes "automatically" is already implemented, but not
enabled by default. Please, see the *Preferences* in JOSM, then check
*Expert Mode*, then select *Advanced Preferences*, and find

	damn.download_notes_automatically

Downloading notes "periodically" should be doable. What is the preferred
default frequency of periodical download?
