A style with endnotes (not numeric) in brackets?
Is there a style that would allow me to use endnotes/footnotes, but which places the note reference within brackets rather than in superscript?
I'm writing a grant application where I need to economise on the number of characters I use and using footnotes is preferable to using author-date (since the list of references is excluded from the character count).
Furthermore, the funder requires that I paste the project description into a web form that will strip the text of any formatting. Therefore, the superscript will likely be lost and so I need some other way of indicating that the figure is a note and not a number. So I want consecutively numbered notes in brackets [1], where each note can cite multiple references. Also, I don't want to use a numeric style – it's rare in my field and might confuse readers.
I understand I could edit an existing footnote style to achieve this, but perhaps there's already one out there that comes close to what I'm looking for.

Previous research has documented the systematic historical injustices perpetrated by the states [1, 2]; analyzed government policy towards the Sami [3]; and described evolving Sami ethnopolitical mobilization and activism [1, 4].

What I want is rather this:
Previous research has documented the systematic historical injustices perpetrated by the states [1]; analyzed government policy towards the Sami [2]; and described evolving Sami ethnopolitical mobilization and activism [3].
Endnotes:
1. Some book. Another book.
2. An article.
3. Some book. A book chapter.
…i.e., the only difference to a regular footnote style would be that notes are not in superscript but within brackets.
