frame.create's text and text.insert kept CR and CR LF as characters, so text
written with InDesign's, classic Mac or Windows line ends ("One\rTwo") became
a single paragraph, and paragraph formatting (spaceAfter) never applied
between the parts. They now become \n, the paragraph separator, as edit.paste
and text import already did.

anchor and focus are byte offsets into the story text, as find.find reports
them, but the params doc said only {story, anchor, focus}. A script that
counts characters (Python's len()) selects too little after the first
accented letter: with "Matemática Básica" and focus 17, type.char left the
last two letters out.

Use the document model boundary helper for explicit selections and retained selections after story replacement. Cover editing and caret movement through the command API.

- doc: Story::extract / insert_story carry formats, footnotes, cross-references, index markers
and tables through copy and paste
- engine: edit.copy/cut on text keep a formatted slice; edit.paste uses it while the system
clipboard matches (else plain text, no smart quotes); edit.pasteWithoutFormatting (⇧⌘V);
type.changeCase (upper/lower/title/sentence, run formats kept)
- UI: canvas copy/cut/paste go through the engine; Type › Insert Special Character (Symbols,
Markers, Hyphens and Dashes, Quotation Marks, Other), Insert White Space, Insert Break
Character, Change Case; nested submenus in the menu parser (+ test)

- doc: FOOTNOTE_REF marker + Story::notes (kept in sync on insert/delete/thread), FootnoteOptions,
NumberStyle::Symbols, footnote text addressed like cell text (CellAddr::footnote)
- compose: notes numbered (continuous / restart per page, spread, section), composed at column
width, body text makes room, stacked at the column bottom with the rule above
- render + PDF draw footnote text; IDML export/import in InDesign's structure (verified in
InDesign 2026), FootnoteOption preferences
- engine: footnote.insert/options/list/setText/delete/goToReference (+ tests)
- UI: caret/selection in footnote text, Footnote Options dialog, Type menu entries; menu items
labelled '…' with parameters open a dialog generated from the command's params doc
- sample magazine carries a footnote
