RedCloth Footnotes

How come redcloth footnotes can't produce a link back to where the footnote came from? It already creates the link down, it would be nice if it brought it back up. Just make the reference number on the footnote a link back to it's source. Or does this cause problems if there are multiple references? I guess I am thinking in terms of latex style footnotes so that is why this solution interested me.
