Hi, Reading through the git logs, I have found this:
+(defconst org-latex--section-no-footnote-backend + (org-export-create-backend + :parent org-latex--section-backend + :transcoders + `((footnote-reference . ignore))) + "Export backend that strips footnotes from title. + +Footnotes are not allowed in \\section and similar commands that +contribute to TOC and footers. +See https://orgmode.org/list/691643eb-49d0-45c3-ab7f-a1edbd093...@gmail.com +https://texfaq.org/FAQ-ftnsect") Do we really need this now that the ToC handles footnotes correctly? Cheers, /PA
