Highlight footnotes

I often find myself wanting to use markup tools like highlighters on text within footnotes. I'm shocked that this isn't already a feature and highly suggest it be made a feature ASAP.

This is a common request (there should be an ide to vote for someplace…), and I think Logos understands fully well why we want that. The problem is that the current structure of footnote data storage does not allow for it, i.e. it would be a change very deep in the machine, thus costly to implement and test.

I have pitched this idea many times, to no avail.

However, maybe we are not really far off: Today "Forgotten Songs" downloaded into my library, it's a Logos Reader edition. The footnotes actually look a bit like in eBook editions, some not really functional, but many of them seem to work for the most part (but containing additionally the text of the next footnote) - and just as with many eBooks, they are in the text at the chapter end, thus can be highlighted and marked up. Maybe smoothing this up and fixing the bugs in here is the way to go, especially since it seems to be auto-producable from publisher files.
