I suspect we need to find a good way of formatting footnotes in text before we can implement it - that's not built into the script above at all.

I usually do them by hand without links like this[1] but I know other people use different formats. The only markup I can think of with footnotes built in is Wikiformatting which does it with weird pseudo-HTML that I find quite confusing because it seems like it's inline when you write it - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Footnotes

I think it might be a think to take to suggestions or -dev for brainstorming before we do it?
