As per NR 3.2.4 it is possible to specify an explicit footnote mark as
opposed to the automatic number. However, in this case the mark is *not*
repeated in the footnote itself. The examples in the section show that
this is not a bug but known behaviour:
\footnote "*" #'(0.5 . -2) \markup { \italic "* The first note" } a'4
But I'd like to ask if there's a reasoning behind that. I can't think of
a case where you'd not want to have matching marks in the annotation and
the footnote. Wouldn't it be better to have that automatically, like
with automatic numbers?
