I've removed that reference on the release branch.

Thanks, pushed to the master branch.
(Of course, to have Hebrew-style footnotes be rendered correctly,
starting at the left side of the window, one needs to either replace
the "Footnotes" header with something like "הערות שוליים", or insert a
newline after "Footnotes:". But footnote.el doesn't yet support
localized headers.)
