Hi Ted,
working with "real" footnotes seems to be possible but extremely tricky.
I've got no idea of that.
As all this happens on the first page, you could "abuse" the copyright

Oh wow! That -dpreview trims the file nicely. I was prepared to use

As a 6-year-old budding pianist I thought, seriously,
that the "Ped." must be a cocker spaniel. (Our best
friends had one.) If I had to read this as a pedalling
direction, well, fair enough.

You can have the pedal line be a line drawing of Grumpy Cat if you want. ;)
In other words: yes, this is a style [of pedal bracket] that Lilypond can
support.

Dear Jinsong,
I'm not sure why lilypond adds a bit of extra space between the note and
the fermata when there is text nearby (perhaps it's a deliberate attempt to
increase legibility) but you can remove that padding and allow text above
the articulations with the following code:
\version "2.18.2"
Hi Jinsong,
how about :
