No, C++. The target is customizable Scheme, but the current
implementation is rigid C++.

Don't get your hopes up for a timely implementation. Basically the
whole footnote implementation needs to be designed properly. At the
current point of time, it is an after-the-thought hack into the page
breaker.
And of course, the existence of this hack decreases the pressure to
basically do this again almost from scratch.
