I'm impressed at how the new footnote support has managed to put together
readability, stability, ease of use and export-ability (including the
ability to refer to a footnote multiple times!) . I have seen no problems
in my initial tests, and will do more extensive (can I break anything?)
tests as soon as I have the chance.
I think that 'org' is now the only plain-text minimal markup engine to
support both inline and out-of-line footnotes, and I'm quite sure that none
of the others have numbered, labeled, and inline footnotes. And as for ease
of use, well any comparison is unfair. The rest are just language
specifications and processing engines, they offer no help in the writing.
I'm shocked and pleased at how Carsten (with input from the contributors to
this thread) managed to make a somewhat ragged and even contradictory
wishlist into something this elegant and easy to use.
