By waylan:

This comment is not accurate. `self` is passed in as the last arg. It should be assigned to self.footnotes in __init__ like in the other processors of the extension. Then, within the postprocessor just call `self.footnotes.getConfig('BACKLINK_TEXT')`. That would make a cleaner patch which is consistent with the way the rest of the extension works. Fix this and I'll likely merge it. Seems like a good addition to me.
