[Moin-user] Displaying of foot notes in MoinMoin themes

[Kai Jaeger]

Indeed, that's an interesting point.

I changed it to

div.footnotes {
    border-top: 1pt solid gray;
}

which makes the border appear, but it stretches over the whole width.
Defining width:5em; is not appropriate because that influences not
only the border but also the footnotes.

100% width is still better than nothing
