Hi Markus,

Thanks for your advice.  I figure that, like you, I may eventually need
to switch to LaTeX, but will stick with Org for now, at least until my
document structure is quite settled.

Can you elaborate a bit on the following?

What is a Latex group? How they could overlap?  (I would especially like
to be aware of potential footnote problems ahead of time.)

Do you mean you prefer \label and \ref in Latex over Org's abstraction?

Thanks!

Best,
Richard
