Does it actually work in a compatible manner to list alternate
footprints and propagate through gsch2pcb and PCB ? I've long tried to
find a way to do this that works, but nearest I've come to, is create
footprint2, footprint3 attributes to avoid conflict? If there was a
better way, I'd like to know!

Of course, if we reach a point of having proper symbol/footprint
libraries (db seems the most sensible path here imho) then you can
organise your data tables to take care of this automagically anyway.
