Any plans to add it? Without this, the commenter who said that footnotes break the rhythm & flow of reading the post is absolutely correct.

However, you do want the numeral to be superscripted, one way or the other, if it's appended to a word the way you have it. The alternative would be to seperate the footnote reference using the [1] convention; then it doesn't need to be superscripted and the issue goes away ;-) Personally I don’t think superscript is any more a semantic attribute than bold or underline.

My question about not using SUP tags was more along the lines of how SUP tags fit into the semantic XHTML world. SUP is clearly a presentation tag, but if it has semantic meaning or not is hard to say. I thought about having links back, I may still do it.

Ie. see a <sup><u>3</u></sup>, click it, read the footnote, click a (ref) link, and continue where you were. I generally use the normal html tags even if I'm going to style an element with by class or id. That way it breaks nice. Ie. headings use <h1 id'header'> even though they're styled differently. Meaning: use the <sub> tags, but style them anyway. What about a link in the footnote taking you back to the reference?

I like having the freedom to go on for a few lines with this format.
