So, are you saying that a footnote after sentence ending symbol must be
a part of sentence? Is it common in German? Other languages?

I'm afraid that the subject of sentence and is very tricky to handle for
an arbitrary language. Not all the languages even use "." to separate
sentences.

If we want to properly fix the issue, we may need to create a dedicated
rule-set on how to handle sentence end for different languages or maybe
even implement a patch for Emacs itself. I'm afraid that regexps will not
cut it.

Best,
