Hi Dan,

here is a patch that allows footnote definitions to be detached from  
the left margin.  However, I am not sure if it breaks anything else -  
so extensive testing would be necessary...

Also, renumbering footnotes etc will put them back at the margin  
currently.  I am not sure how that should be handled otherwise....
