No problem, pop up a window like showing the explanation from a dictionary, if too much, just add pages in the popped up window. Now all ereader can handle dictionary, so no tech problem on popping up notes.
Footnote, also no problem, there's a book view mode in MS Word from 2003, all footnotes are arranged properly on each page, the problem is if the ereader developer(such as Adobe) would write the code in the software.
