Please allow us to turn on the option to send customers the tracking number via Woocommerce order notes, "Send tracking with order notes", without having to enable the "Mark orders as dispatched on channel" option.

We regularly have customers order multiple items, some of which may be back-order or pre-order items. When we receive these orders we often ship the in-stock items straight away, while keeping the order "On hold" until the back/pre-ordered items arrive.

We can't turn on the "Mark orders as dispatched in channel" option as this would automatically mark as Complete orders where there have been partial shipments. We need to keep these orders On Hold, and not have the customer receive a "Your order is Complete" email.

In other shipping portals, such as DHL Express Commerce, the option to send the tracking information via customer notes is separated from the option to automatically mark orders as complete, which solves this partial shipments issue.
