Yes, Rasmus that will work. Also, I'd like to be able to do this basic thing from html:

<a name="top"></a>

.

.

<a href="#top">link to top</a>

I know the reference manual is trying to tell me how, but I'm just not getting it.

Like[fn:1] or [fn::this].  Try org-footnote-action (typically C-c C-f f)
to do it.  Go back and forward with C-c C-c.

See also the manual (info "(org) Footnotes")

Hope it helps,
