I guess this is either a feature request or a discussion point, but is there a good reason that footnotes aren't considered as links for the purposes of things like `org-next-link` (despite being displayed like links)? From where I'm sitting, this would be very useful for the sake of things like ace-links, which allows you to quickly navigate to on-screen links.
