I'm not sure if this counts as an "easy" way, but you could add a
function to org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-final-hook, that checks if you're in a
multi-line footnote definition and then calls org-footnote-action as if
you were. I say put it in the final hook just so it doesn't clobber
anything else that C-c C-c might want to do at point. It could look
like (very lightly tested):
(defun my-return-from-fn ()
(let* ((context (org-element-context))
(parent (org-element-property :parent context)))
(when (eq (org-element-type parent) 'footnote-definition)
(goto-char (org-element-property :post-affiliated context))
(call-interactively 'org-footnote-action))))
(add-hook 'org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-final-hook 'my-return-from-fn)
It still tells you "C-c C-c can do nothing useful at this location", but
at least it returns you to the right place!
