* Could inline footnotes be made to work with latex commands that have arguments?

If I put a LaTeX citation command inside one of org's inline footnotes, no
problem, thus:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,\footnote{\cite{rowe_acts_2007} } consectetur
adipisicing elit,

But if I need an optional argument, no dice.  This:

 ex ea commodo consequat.[fn:: \cite[56]{fitzmyer_one_2007}] Duis aute irure
dolor

exports to LaTeX like this:

ex ea commodo consequat.[fn:: \cite[56]{fitzmyer_one_2007}] Duis aute irure
dolor

(i.e. there is no \footnote{} macro created)

For consistency in my markup, I would rather use org's inline footnotes for
citations like this (which sometimes number several inside a footnote).   If
I can't, I'd just go ahead and use LaTeX \footnote{} macros right in my org
files.

Is the present behaviour likely to be fixable?  Or should I just write my
footnotes as LaTeX \footnotes{}?

  This does not look like easy to fix: It are the square brackets of the
  \cite command that prevent Org mode from recognizing the inline
  footnote.  
  
  You could try to work with a LaTeX hack, something along:
  
  ,----
  | \newcommand{\mycite}[2]{\cite[#1]{#2}}
  `----
  
  This would provide the macro \mycite with two arguments given in
  curly brackets that is expanded to the \cite sequence.

    Thanks, David, for your response.  I suspected it might not be that easy to
    fix.
    
    I hadn't thought of making a custom command which only used mandatory
    arguments.  I'll try it out and see if I like it.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Scot
