you replace superscript arabic numerals against their Unicode equivalents, why not subscript numerals, too? (Unicode range U+2080..U+2089)

This might help with line spacing issues (except if it were for footnotes/endnotes only).

I did not have any case where subscript appeared, and adding things without a need and a test-case seemed not a good idea. If you have an example I can look into it.

[rdoeffinger]

Or if you write and test a patch yourself that is also an option - probably the approach should use a single regexp for both cases to avoid going through the data twice.
