I would like to be able to force footnotes onto the page they correspond to. 
Right now they will wrap under certain circumstances, which works just fine and
is what I think people normally want them to do.  However, I have a paper for a
class where the instructor insists they stay on the same page and not wrap, so
possibly I am not the only person who would like this option (on the other hand,
this is for law school, which I think tends to be heavy on footnotes and low on
OpenOffice users).  

Presumably there would be circumstances where the footnote would absolutely have
to wrap.  One way to implement this enhancement might be to make users who want
to override the default behavior specify what percentage of the page the
footnote section may take up before it will wrap.
