What's the current state of affairs regarding footnotes in floats? Both version 
in the example below don't quite work...
(Ideally, the note should be on the page with the float and the caption, but 
the numbering should also be adjusted.)

We can completely abuse a bunch of different ConTeXt features to ensure
that the footnote numbers are always in the page order.

    \startluacode
        userdata.visual_order = 0
        userdata.input_order = 0
        userdata.save_data = job.passes.define("saved_footnotes")
        userdata.previous_data = job.passes.getcollected("saved_footnotes")

        interfaces.implement {
            name = "set_footnote_number",
            actions = function ()
                userdata.input_order = userdata.input_order + 1

                local input_index = userdata.input_order
                local page_index = userdata.previous_data[input_index]

                if page_index then
                    structures.counters.set("footnote", 1, page_index - 1)
                end
            end
        }
    \stopluacode

    \def\save_footnote_data#1{%

            userdata.visual_order = userdata.visual_order + 1
            userdata.save_data[#1] = userdata.visual_order

    \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf}

    % (Can't use postponingnotes)
    % \startpostponingnotes
    \startplacefigure[title={asdfasdf\footnote{test 2}}]
    \externalfigure[cow.pdf][height=10cm]
    \stopplacefigure

    \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf} \footnote{asdf}
    \stoptext

Here, we save a mapping between each footnote's index in the input and
its index in the output to the .tuc file. The code is definitely not
pretty, but works well enough for the sample file provided.
