After reading the comments I see the conflict. I see pros and cons for 
both sharing and syncing but it´s always a user preference.

A use case not mentioned in the bug would be:
A small team is sharing project notes. There pinned notes could be used 
like sticky posts in a forum and therefor should be shared...

Well, but it´s tricky. Even if you make it configurable whether or not 
the pinned state should be synchronized/shared, it would have to be 
configurable for each sync/share partner which quickly would be come a 
usability/UI nightmare.

I´m not having any opinion about that subject anymore - please forget 
that I was asking ;)
