Consider:

This word\footnote{with a footnote} has a footnote

Now, when producing DVIs, the foonote number (hyer)linked to the
footnote would suffice. When creating PDFs I would prefer the
footnote to be turned into a tooltip (this I already did) and the
word to be turned into the active area, i.e. a result similar to
\tooltip{footnote}{with a footnote}.

it is still on my agenda to make something generic for that

I can do this by defining a command \xfootnote{word}{with a
footnote} that gives either of the two results in each case, but
it would be nice if it was possible without changing the sources.

the problem (well not that big a problem since it's seldom needed) is that one cannot look back into the input stream over the word; so indeed something with multiple args is needed, although clicking on some symbols is ok too
