I guess it's a personal preference, but out-of-the-box, Norm's
stylesheets render footnote marks at 90% of the surrounding font size
-- it's a barely noticeable difference, and I find them way too large.
I'm pretty sure LaTeX, just for example, will render a footnote mark
at 7 points in 10 point text.

You probably saw Nikolai's suggestions in another mail -- this is a
problem that is bugging me at the moment as well, so I will see if I
can work his suggestions into Norm's stylesheets. Let me know if you
come up with anything.
