Hmm, a quick and unscientific sample of Documentation/ suggests that
 many/most existing examples put the footnote shortly after the
 reference or at the end of the section, roughly as I did here.  I
 looked at five rST files found by "grep \[#\]_" and all of them had
 the footnote body close to the reference.
The placement of the footnote text in the generated output is up to
 the stylesheet / renderer, of course.
