Attributes are lost. You need to retrieve the definition within the parse tree, using `org-element-map', then extract the information you need. See for example `org-export-get-footnote-definition'. Note that there is no guarantee that there is a matching definition in the parse tree: the reference could as well be inline, or referencing an inline footnote reference. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
