Didn't check that for some month now... Yes, I've just tried that. Create a file with footnotes, save it, kill the buffer, find it again, add another footnote, and it starts numbering from [1] again. Looks like a bug to me.

Well, I don't have a strong opinion on that. But currently org-footnote.el is not very good when writing mails, because it places footnotes at the end of a buffer. If there's a signature, then footnotes are in that and likely to be removed by people replying to your mail.
