Re: [dev] footnotes improvements

[Christian Moe <mail@christianmoe.com>]

Hi,

Nice! Tested only your snippet.


* HTML: works!

One question: As is, adjoining footnotes `2' and `3' read as `23'. 
Could/should the footnote export know to put a comma between them:`2,3'?

For HTML purposes, I think not necessarily, the separator could be 
flexibly added with CSS like:

: #+style: <style>sup + sup .footref:before {content: ", "}</style>


*  Latex: backtrace:

   org-export-latex-preprocess((:for-backend latex :emph-multiline t 
:add-text nil :comments nil :skip-before-1st-heading nil
