I agree.

I tested the patch and it does what you want, thanks for it.
It doesn't break footnotes export in LaTeX (good thing!). I didn't
test for other exporters.
However, it seems to me that org-footnote-normalize does the right thing
when putting every footnotes at a single place -- at least, there should
be a footnote section, even when footnotes live within a subtree. It'll
make life easier for exporter.
If you don't mind, I first want to do some work on the generic exporter
to decide how to implement your idea.
Thanks!
