I didn't grasp the workings of the footnote functionality in ox so excuse
my ignorance.

Would it not be possible to allow different "counters"?  (Like LaTeX).  So
that for org-element-document-properties (at least author and title), one
would use the ox footnote functionality with an auxiliary counter.=20=20

On the backend-side LaTeX would work normally but use \thanks.  In html
fancy entities would be used instead of arabic numbers.  Same in ox-ascii.

OK with me.  How about inline footnotes in properties?

 :export_title: My Title[fn::X helped a lot].

=E2=80=94Rasmus

--=20
Don't panic!!!
