Whiny grumble about Keynote stickies

 
You know, I really do like using Apple Keynote. We’ve been using it for serious, hardcore production for a number of years now, and it just takes anything I push at it: embedded 1GB video files, massive amounts of formatting, anything.
But that said, I do have one gripe. These nifty stickies that you can use to leave comments for other people working on the deck? Great idea. But when you get down to the last line on a default-sized sticky note with default-sized text and font, it automatically indents the beginning of the line, and then wraps after about 6-7 characters, and looks like ass. If you resize it two pixels taller (count ‘em, two), then it looks fine. Grumble, grumble.
Granted, this is iWork 08 we’re talking about, but something tells me it hasn’t changed in 09.
