It's a good idea. I think the problem with being presented the whole page is that we fool ourselves into thinking we know something. I.e recognition feels like remembering.

So it might be better to draw the boxes up front, but I like the concept.

https://www.remnote.io/ tries to do something like this but with textual notes.

I just want taking notes and then chopping those notes into spaced repetition items to be separate.

I didn't mean present the entire page, although a link back to the entire page for context would be nice.

Also, being able to remember things by their spacial layout on the page is an advantage, not a flaw. It allows you to employ your spacial and visual memory to help in memorizing concepts and facts.
