If so, that would be a bug in htmlize.  While Emacs supports arbitrarily
overlapping properties/overlays/extents, HTML doesn't, and htmlize is
normally careful to describe each unchanged run of text on its own.

I am not familiar with org-mode, so I will need a description of exactly
how to reproduce this bug.  Specifically I don't know how to put a
reference on the next line.

Your patch may work in this particular case, but the idea behind htmlize
is to describe the state of the buffer.  If a property ends after the
newline, it is intended that the generated HTML reflect this.
