The JATS XML writer seems to give results for footnotes that are, while not strictly incorrect, at least slightly unusual.

This here:

Test.^[Footnote Text]

compiled with pandoc minimal.md -t jats -s gives:

...
<body>
<p>Test.<fn>
  <p>Footnote Text</p>
</fn></p>
</body>
...

Following the specs, I would expect the footnotes in the backmattter in a footnote group:

<body>
<p>Test.
<xref ref-type="fn" rid="fn_1">1</xref>
</p>
</body>
<back>
<fn-group>
<fn id="fn1">
  <p>Footnote Text</p>
</fn>
</fn-group>
</back>

See here. The relevant passage is:

"Best Practice: When footnotes are grouped at the end of an article, wrap them in a and use an element in the text, as usual, to tie each footnote in the list to a particular location in the text."
