Yeah sorry, that's what I meant.
https://public-inbox.org/git/20180308150820.22588-1-avarab@gmail.com/
is the reference I meant to put there.

How about something like the below?  This is tested with asciidoc
8.6.10 and asciidoctor 1.5.6.2.  I'm also happy to squash the two
patches into one if that's preferred.
If the discussion in the proposed log message needs to be updated
anyway, it is a good opportunity to make them into a single patch,
as they share exactly the same objective.
This was mostly a clarification of the note I added after the '---',
but I'm happy to just make this one patch either way.

This is a tangent, but the use of footnote below looks a but
curious.  How would {1} reference pick which :1: to use?  The
closest preceding one?
Tbh I didn't look at the docs for doing this, but just used the same
syntax as we're already using and tried it with both asciidoc and
asciidoctor.  And yes it seems like it always picks the preceeding
one.

As this appears on a page that already has other footnotes attached
to an adjacent paragraph, I am wondering if they should be made into
a part of the same numbering sequence.
I have now actually looked at the docs, and this numbering has nothing
to do with the footnote format, but rather is used to substitute the
attribute that's specified in the curly braces with the text that's
after :<attribute>: [1].  This initially confused me a bit.  Maybe it
would be nicer to give the attributes names instead of just numbers?
As we keep adding footnotes, that would be less likely to produce
conflicts between the different attributes I think.

I'm also adding brian to the cc list, as he first converted this to
AsciiDoc for opinions.
Now really adding the CC, I failed earlier.  Sorry about the noise.
