Use case or problem
Avoiding duplicates in the reference list when using inline footnotes, in those cases where the same source is repeated across different paragraphs, e.g.:
results in two identical footnotes
Proposed solution
If an inline footnote entirely matches a previous inline footnote in the same note, only one entry in the reference list should appear, with two ︎
︎.
Current workaround (optional)
Using markdown footnotes allows to use a single reference for multiple footnotes. However, markdown footnotes are not practical in my experience. For example, markdown footnotes render cumbersome to move a paragraph from one note to another, as the footnote is not necessarily in the same block or in reasonable proximity of the referenced text.
