While we're at it, can we add a separate <note> tag, so that we can add footnotes with their own references (rather than having to resort to templates)? See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T7265 (originally requested in 2006!).
The bug you linked there was correctly marked as a duplicate of T8271. You seem to have gotten it confused with T3310 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T3310, which is a separate issue with the parser in general.
Also there's no actual need for templates for the current workaround, you can use {{#tag:ref}} directly to nest them.
