Use the `Config File Syntax`__ in the config file?

__ http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/config.html#configuration-file-syntax


With ::

  [html4css1 writer]
  footnote-references: superscript

and using the html4css writer (rst2html.py), it works here.

With ::

  [writers]
  footnote-references: superscript

it works also for rst2html5.py.

It may require one additional confirmation step (telling Gmane that
posting is OK). I don't recall the actual procedure but I use my
news-reader via Gmane for reading and posting both docutils-user and
docutils-devel.
