Dear list,

motivated by a question on TeX.SX I wanted to typeset multicolumn text with multicolumn footnotes.
 However, on the first page the distance between the columns and the footnote area is way too large.
 Occurs in TL2017 and latest beta.

Also, is there something to influence the alignment inside the footnotes more aggressively.  There
are a couple of bad boxes.  Is it possible to turn of balancing for the footnote columns?

Cheers, Henri
