I've been having a similar issue that kept me from being able to use the 
footnote feature.

I need to be able to enter the footnote once and then to repeatedly refer to 
that same footnote.  This is what you do when citing the same source multiple 
times.

I'm curious, where does this 1) notation come from?  I'm not familiar with it, 
except in outlines or lists.  In the scientific literature, we'll do footnotes 
as [JSMITH2], etc.  A good compromize might be [1], [2], etc.
