As I noted on the Wiki's footnotes page when I discovered this, \note is 
basically equivalent to the standard \in function for accessing references, 
except that it typesets the result as a superscript.

Thus, you can use \in rather than \note to reference a footnote number in 
normal format -- e.g., "(ref.\ \in[lemur])", for your example, though using 
"(\in{ref.}[lemur])" will do a better job with any hyperlinks, since the 
word "ref." will be included in the hyperlink.  And, if for some bizarre 
reason you want to reference a section number by setting it as a 
superscript, you can use \note instead of \in for that.
