Hmm, not sure about that. I'd have to guess that the broker searches may be hardcoded.
As for an ingame notepad... I made something like that using a simple online system that uses cookies and the in-game browser. Worked well enough for me.
I don't have the bandwith on my site for everyone to use it, but since you ask I'll post it so anyone can host it:

$on = $_POST['turned'];

if($on == 2)

$code = $_POST['code'];
$notename = "note" . $code;
$text = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$notename];
}
if($on == 5)
{
$code = $_POST['code'];
$notename = "note" . $code;
$text = $_POST['note'];
setcookie($notename, $text, time()+60*60*24*30);
echo "Note Saved! <br> \n\r";
