I'm probably not the best to answer that question, but looking into the footnote test cases in our test suite there seem to be pretty good reasons why breaking up a footnote is absolutely ok. If you want to know about the details I suggest you go through the fop-dev mailing list archive. At any rate, I can't see anything in the specification that forbids this. 6.10.4 even says "The fo:footnote-body generates and returns one or more block-level areas with area-class "xsl-footnote"." This is a clear indicator that a footnote may be broker over multiple pages.
