Possibly - what use-cases do you foresee?

I can imagine a browser plug-in which, when the user clicks
on or hovers
over a reference to a footnote, brings it up in a floating
window, for
instance.

Exactly. The only use-case I forsee is for blog footnotes.
There may be
others, but in the spirit of going with existing markup,
using for a blog is
what I'm currently[1] doing.
