Use case or problem

Long legal notes are full of footnotes. In live preview I have to jump to the bottom to read one.

Hovering a footnote marker shows its text, like internal link previews do.

Quick poll so we can see how people use footnotes:

Could be a plugin in the meantime. Might have a look this weekend.
