Hans has already done some preliminary work in this direction. I could not
completely test it because the implementations used hooks from e-TeX. Now
that eOmega/Aleph is available I will be able to be a bit more proactive in
testing/suggesting things.

I don't remember if Hans added the xperimental stuff for critical editions
to the latest beta. But I'm going to have to start testing this stuff soon,
because the next issue of our journal is supposed to have a couple of small
Arabic critical editions in it.

if i'm right, you have somewhere:


\input page-nnt
\input core-nnt
\input core-lnt

(multiple footnote classes, arbitrary footnote placement, line refs in footnotes and so)
