Well, clicking on the numbers should scroll to the footnote, but yes, they will be a bit far away in a top-posting scenario.

Markdown in particular thrives on its simplicity and practicality. If it doesn't require too many changes, I for one would be glad if improvements for composing messages found their way to the top of the to-do list.

Technically, I guess it would be possible for MailMate to look for the footnotes-section after generating the HTML using CommonMark. If there is a signature in the message then MailMate could keep track of its location and move the footnotes. I'll give it some thought.
