is clearly "identifiable" as an order (e.g because the text string
"order" is found), or automatically forwarded to the person in
charge. This person writes an invoice, prints it out and the
"order entry system" generates a paper output, and a PDF.
The forward based on some criteria could be a filter.

Well can't drag and drop the PDF from the desktop but it's quite easy in Zimbra to add an attachment when composing a mail in Zimbra. Of course the notes can just be the body of the email.

Because it could happen, that a mail is routed to different
persons, the person which added the "attachement/note"
and the date should be recognizeable.
I am exited to hear if that killer feature could be soon
integrated. For such a cool feature we would even pay,
(if you are going to support it in feature releases).

The date/time and FROM is stamped on all outgoing mail. So I think al your cases are for the most part covered. Let me know if you've got any additional questions.
