Hi Shan and Thiago, in-page linking is really the one thing I miss, whether it is to link to footnotes, headings within the same page, headings to another page, or a link to images or tables. So I would very much like to see this feature as well!
Otherwise I absolutely love Zim, especially because of its simplicity. I even came to appreciate that there is no spellcheck that underlines mispelled words: this allows to stay focused while writing drafts and the polishing can be done afterwards (or in another program).
