Vincent Hennebert commented on FOP-1099:
----------------------------------------

Repeating the footnote on every page creates all sorts of problems: what do we 
do if a footnote doesn't fit on the current page and has to be deferred to the 
next one? The next page will end up having two identical footnotes. Also, how 
would footnote numbering work? The number would be duplicated?

Putting the footnote into the first table-row after the table-header is well 
and good, but then the footnote mark will no longer appear in the header, which 
will probably not be what the user wants.

It seems to me that this kind of requirement is better solved by using markers.
