 * Referencing still creates duplicates footnotes.
 * Even in the manual [http://elvery.net/drzax/wordpress-footnotes-plugin](http://elvery.net/drzax/wordpress-footnotes-plugin),
   referencindg doesn’t work:
    7. Like this 8. Like this The footnotes are repeated
   with distinct numbers.

 * Oops, my bad, apparently it’s an option: combine identical notes.
    That really
   should be the default.

 * Other sensible defaults:
    – content priority should be 1, so that it’s ahead 
   of all other plugins. After all, footnotes are pretty much part of the content
   while other plugins just add buttons. – This should be displayed before the footnotes:
 *     ```
       <div class="footnotes" style="clear:both">
       Footnotes:
       </div>
       ```
   
 * with
    `ol.footnotes, div.footnotes {font-size:0.8em; color:#666666;}`
