Actually there is some tie to ePUB format. Currently the definition of footnotes is not designed in a fashion that allows the reader to do what we have defined in this thread. There is no specific tag assigned to footnotes like my example of <note> which is mandatory to identify the footnote contents. ePUB standard needs updating to define this.
