Yes, Footnotes in Org are single paragraph.  Maybe this could be
changed, if enough people claim they need this.  I never have the
need for this, and new lines can be made with "\\" at the end of
a line.

The solution for this is to make footnote references stick to
the word before them.  This also gives much better results in
HTML and LaTeX export.  I would have liked to even enforce this
convention, but that would have been incompatible with
the old footnote.el behavior.
